On a flatbed wrecker - if it is not insured. Most states allow up to thirty days to get a tag for it when you buy the car. But the states also say you must have liability insurance to drive it on their highways. It is sometimes difficult to arrange insurance coverage when you are out shopping for a car from an owner after work hours. God forbid you have a wreck driving it home with no insurance but it does happen. When you buy it you put a plate size sign in the plate area with large letters: the date on it for a 30 days later date. Like 5/23/08. You can try the same thing tag sign with a car you already own and are trying to deliver to a repair man to get the emissions or the car working better. If you get pulled over because of your bad driving or other you will have a problem.

Can a dead persons license plates be used?

No. The plates need to be on the same car they are registered to, so you can't go take the plates off a car of a dead person and put them on a different car. Let's say you inherit the car so you would go have the car put in your name and the plates would stay on the car but in your name. If you took the plates off a car to use on another car that would be stealing the plates. This could result in arrest.
