Interesting these ‘taggers’, just bored brats in Stratford, wouldn’t have hit the plow. A much bigger canvas. Not that I support destruction of property.

I have a feeling they hit the units because the plow is black, or at least a dark grey. Not a great spot for dark coloured paint to be noticed. But otherwise yes, that’s a BIG canvas.
