I have a neighbor with a flat array on his house. According to our well trained city rebate guy flat is better than west or east if your roof and surroundings wont allow south. If your worried about driving off make a kill switch or alarm that requires the panels down. We had those on the live news vans to keep people from forgetting to lower the mast before driving off...worked most of the time until one photographer put a wedge in its place so he could adjust the truck position with the mast up, then forgot about it and drove off at the end of the show.
