Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

P.S. For those of you about to jump on your keyboards, that was a funny. Now go diving and enjoy yourself.

So, in closing and this is only my opinion!!!!!
You are okay transporting 5 or less of your own tanks, but maybe for CYA aspect you should get a class 2 label on your tanks and transport them in open view (not car trunk). I'm attaching the label as example only, not official one.
Thanks for some clarity. There's still the personal exemption clause, previously mentioned. I carry 6 tanks most of the time (we've three divers and even if one stays home, an full tank at home isn't very useful). Not sure how I'd carry it in view. Build a rack on the roof? I think that's more in line with a pick up or flat bed with a couple of cylinders (say a oxyacetylene welding kit) fastened in back. I don't think the back window of your car would be considered open view.
As it happens I did apply placards to my dive gear trailer. I see by the regs, they're not large enough. Will have to remedy that next spring.
