Sep 7, 2017 at 20:53 comment added Yorik If you look especially for moving truck or tanker truck photos from the 60s, you will see multiple state plates.
Sep 7, 2017 at 20:47 comment added Yorik While it is true that Spielberg made a claim about the multiple plates being taken from other cars, trucks that operated interstate needed to be registered in each state they operated in. The IRP Apportioned plates were introduced in about 1973 (formalized trucking related tax-sharing between individual US States and Canada). Duel was 1971, and the truck is an old Peterbilt from the the 50s. Did he lie because it was a better story that made him seem clever?
