USPS trucks come in two types.
The ones actually owned by the post office have no plates at all, None,
Zip Nada,  There is a number painted on the back of the truck (Fleet id
number) but there is no license plate.
The reason for this is the constution.  Congress has the right to
establish POSTAL ROADS,  Thus the post office OWNS the highway. It is
their property and you don't need a license plate ON YOUR OWN PROPERTY
The second type of USPS truck is the contract hauler.  This truck does
not belong to the USPS but to a trucking company and/or owner/operator
(For example one of my High School Classmates drives such a truck) and
it is licensed in accordance with all the laws for commricial vehicles
in the state(s) it travels in.  Same as any other semi, Even though it
bears the USPS logo under contract.
