I durn sure have...

I had Tx DOT impound my 48 ft drop deck once because the VIN tag had been scraped off long ago by a careless forklift operator. All 4 corners of the tag and the rivets were in place, but there was a deep rusty scrape right through the middle.

I was informed that anything on the road without a clearly readable VIN tag was "seizable". My trailer was held for investigation for 5 days until they could get the manufacturer to provide them with the "confidential VIN numbers" that are hidden in various places during munufacture and verify it was actually the trailer we held title to. The DOT further ordered a new tag from the manufacturer for us and would not let us put that trailer back in service until the new tag was "permanently attatched".
