Flag etiquette Tips for Displaying Flags on Cars and Motorcycles
Here are a couple of simple tips that make it easier for you to fly it with pride while you drive around town:

You can mount a flag on either the center of the roof, the passenger side hood, or the rear of the vehicle on the trunk. For motorcycles, you can easily install a flag mount on the rear of the bike. The flags should not be placed on the left side or driver's side of the vehicle. Make sure the flag doesn't obstruct the view of the driver or create any safety concerns.
Always fly the American flag in the center of a row of other flags if flying more than one flag type. You should also make sure all the flags are angled at the same angle for a unified look.
Never fly any flag higher than the American flag. The American flag should be at the center of other flags but placed above the other flags for proper respect.
Make sure the American flag is not only placed higher up, but is also the largest flag when flying more than one flag at once. You want the American flag to be the star of the show when flying multiple vehicle flags, so make sure it's bigger and placed higher up than the other flags.
Maintain the appearance of the flag. An American flag with tears, holes, stains or fading is a sign of disrespect to the flag. Make sure you regularly inspect the flag for wear and tear and clean it regularly to maintain a proper appearance.
Above all, make sure that the pole of mount you use to secure the flag to your vehicle is strong, sturdy and rated to support the size of the flag you’re using. The last thing you want is for the flag to become detached or fall off entirely! Not letting the flag touch the ground is a cardinal rule, and losing the flag in traffic isn’t just embarrassing—it’s disrespectful

never say "Happy" Memorial day, it's a day honoring deceased Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Coasties and Airmen.

I put a pole up on my property when I moved in and have flown Old Glory there ever since. I left high school to volunteer for service (seems like a lifetime ago). I was proud to have volunteered then, and would step in again if asked.

Never fly any flag higher than the American flag.

This is not a 100% absolute rule. If the US Flag is flying with flags of another nation, and it is to be flown at half mast such as on Memorial Day morning, the foreign flag is not brought down to half mast. The closest formal flag regulation addressing this is the military regulations for ships flying flags while in the port of another nation. A US ship is required to fly the flag of the host nation while in a host port. There is no requirement for the flag of another nation to be brought to half mast to commemorate a US event. We don't control another nation's rules for flying a national flag.

Our flag is always flying. Independence and our freedom did not come free.
