I'm in Nebraska, and haven't a clue about Alabama law, but I think like others said it's up to the discretion of the individual law officer.
I once had a Nebraska scale officer ticket me for hauling a stock car on a trailer with a pickup with farm plates. The law considers a stock car to be a revenue producing piece of equipment, and to tow in on a public road the tow vehicle needs to have commercial plates.
