Is it illegal to hang a flag on a car in california!?

Question, is it illegal to hang a flag in the back of a car in California?
I live in San Diego and before I get pulled over I would like to know if its a hazard or illegal. I looked all over Google and dmv and couldnt find anything

Thanks.

I know in Ramona there is a group of guys that run HUGE American flags off the back of their trucks. And I have seem them doing this for a few years now so I'm sure the cops have seen it and they don't appear to mind.

Can not block lights or your view out the back

The rearview of a vehicle may be obstructed as long as you have both left and right sideview mirrors that allow you a rearview of at least 200ft.

Remember to pull it from service, and have it PROPERLY disposed of once its starts getting frayed/torn/dirty.

They seem to have more rights than the rest of that were born here though.

Aren't the US Flag laws much stricter in what can be done with our flag over what other countries allow to be done with theirs?

Probably, but OP did not specify a particular flag.

US Code specifies a number of things that are prohibited (such as clothing made to resemble the US flag) and they seem to be pretty much ignored and unenforced.

The flag code also clearly says you can not deface a flag but every postage stamp with a flag gets defaced by a crude stamp over it then thrown in the trash....

I read the flag code several years ago when a big debate fired up on another forum, it was interesting and changed how I look at and treat the flag(in any form).

All regarding the american flag of course.
