We're heading off to rural Georgia in a few weeks and I plan to take off all of them except the joy, dance, etc. ones because I don't want to attract negative attention at my son's house. I did the same a few years ago when my dd and I drove through rural Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, etc. Well I live in rural SC not too far from the Georgia state line. I don’t think your precautions are necessary. I see cars with similar stickers to yours on the road all the time. It’s fine, really. I have no stickers, magnets, or anything on my current vehicle. I just prefer it that way. Edited to add - Biden did win Georgia by the way. Oh yes, believe me my ds and his partner were definitely celebrating that. But they live in a Republican-leaning neighborhood and I just didn't want to cause any trouble.

Other - dog footprint with Colorado as the background
I also have a vintage state personalized plate that says TWA ONE on it.. it’s inside my truck on the back window
I don’t like tons of stuff but I like to see some personalized stuff that individualize yourself
I don’t put stickers on the actual vehicle though.. it ruins the paint. And looks terrible when they get old and yucky. The window ones you can easily remove.

I have my son's college sport logo in a small-ish sticker (not a bumper sticker) and a Ferrari-style moose in Swedish flag colors (I drive a Volvo). I also have two tiny rubber Swedish flags on my front fenders. License plate frame is my son's school. image uploader

I have a license plate frame from my college and a small Seattle Seahawk logo vinyl on a side window (my new car had defrost lines all over the back window and I didn't want to cover them, so put it on the side).
That's it.

I've never had anything on my car until out of the blue a few years ago, while I was visiting my mom, Dh put a personalized plate on my car. It's not something I picked, as I never wanted one and if I had it wouldn't be what I now have. 👿 it has nothing to do with me, but is relevant to Dh and his business, sort of. It causes people to follow me to ask me questions. In parking lots of is not uncommon for people to be milling about and then say things like, Whoa, didn't see you coming? Or, Is that actually your car? Or my personal favorite, when they can't figure it out and say, You don't look evil. of
I can promise this will not be happening when I eventually get a new car. And if I weren't so lazy, I'd get a hold of DMV and get our plates swapped.

I almost checked "personalized license plate" but I don't have that ... I have a "Support Our Troops" license plate which has a distinctive illustration and it's own set of letters and numbers ... part of the money collected from people like me with this plate goes to military charities

I checked Other. My vehicle has a Support Our Troops license plate. The provincial govt sells them with proceeds going to Canadian veterans.

Nothing. I have a state police friend that said to never put anything on your car. ITA!! I have a family of lawyers and they (also) suggest not putting anything personal on your car, home, etc. Not to be paranoid, but people put some information on their cars and you could easily figure out their full names, where they lived, etc. It's dangerous, especially in this rage-filled-political atmosphere we have going on. I see lots of "Let's Go Brandon" bumper stickers, etc. I've even seen "F**K BIDEN" stickers, which I found to be so rude. No matter which political figure I might completely disagree with or have great disdain for, I'd never have that on my car. All it does it incite.

Two stickers from places I went on vacation that were special to me. They're small and near the license plate.

I have a college window cling on my back window. I chose ‘college sticker’ even though it’s not really a sticker. I would not put any kind of sticker on the paint or bumper.

I don't have anything right now. I may get a vinyl window decal for my business, but I haven't decided yet.

I only have personalized license plates, no magnets or stickers of any kind on my car. Not going to add any to this car. My personalized plates are not something that others could figure out unless they knew all our first and middle names. So not so very personal, LOL. Vanity plates are only a little more than regular plates in our state so a large number of people have them here.
Our old vehicle (mini-van) had a few misc. magnets - nothing political (Capitals hockey, local HS crew/rowing team (DDs), soccer club (DS & DD2), logo from a retreat area & our kids summer camp, a Nationals curly W). When we sold that car I took them all off and never put any new ones on. I've never used bumper stickers or car decals at all, only magnets.

I have a custom vinyl quote from The Hobbit which says "I'm going on an adventure!" and a sticker from the local chapter of the Great Allegheny Passage. I'll be getting a new car in the fall - I'll have 2 college stickers, a Disney College Program decal and I'll probably get another one of the vinyl quotes made because it's my personal motto. It will be a chaotic mess.

I picked other and have a CDN sticker in the back window of my car.
A few cars back we bought a van that came with a UWashington (just a purple W) sticker on it and it was still there when we sold it in CA a few years later. We added a CDN sticker.
DH has a sticker from his old rugby club and a single sticker with US/Canadian flags.

I just realized I do have a sticker of sorts on the inside of my front windshield that you can see from the outside. It’s one of those barcode things that gets scanned for our car wash. My car came with free car washes at the car dealer’s car wash for as long as we own the vehicle.
Years ago we bought our DD’s Volkswagen Passat from her. I knew about the Colorado Avalanche sticker on the rear window glass, but not about the 2 Patrick Roy (Avs Goaltender) stickers on the moonroof and passengers side flip down mirror. Didn’t discover those until a few months later. It always made me smile when I’d notice them since she lived hundreds of miles away at the time.

I have a magnet, not a sticker- but chose sticker because it's closest. It's the "Kind" heart logo from Penzeys; I think I got it for free with an order a while ago.
My DH and I also have license plate frames-- mine is "Have you hugged your Sheltie today?" and his is "Shelties are like potato chips- you can't have just one" lol. Right now my car has a dealership license plate frame that they snuck on there last time I took it in for service, and we haven't taken it off yet. (I VERY much dislike providing free advertising for an auto dealership.)
eta: in AZ, I had a personalized license plate because I had the special centennial design plate. Since we moved to MO, I haven't decided which license plate I want (there are a lot of different designs) or what I want to get put on it.

I have 2 paw prints that I made with one of our dogs names in each that I made that are on the back of my car.
I don't really like random stuff on the back of my car, and never bumper stickers. But for a while there were a TON of red SUVs in parking lots, this just makes it easier to identify mine from a distance.

We drive a bland colored mini van. We are not bland colored people, so the back of our van has Funko Pop! vinyl cut outs of our favorite characters in our favorite color, which forms a little rainbow since we each have a different favorite color. Then I saw a cute Harry Potter decal and added that, it's just white and doesn't take up much room.
Our front window has the current year's Hurricane Re-entry sticker for down there as well. We can't get on the island at all without that sticker in the event of a disaster and I'd rather avoid a fight if I need to get down to my Mom. It also doubles as free parking.
I like seeing what people put on their cars, but absolutely would not put something from my school aged child's school, etc or anything political.
