There’s one in my town that is black. With black writing on it that says police. The only way to see the text is to see the difference in sheen between the paint and the writing.
Yeah, cops call this ghost marking. They do it to skirt around the laws regarding marked vs unmarked vehicles. Unmarked vehicles have stricter requirements, so cops ghost mark their vehicles and say “look, they’re technically not unmarked, so they don’t have to follow all of those stricter rules.”
