152 | county, or municipal law enforcement vehicle or a vehicle used |
153 | by a criminal justice agency as now or hereafter defined in s. |
154 | 943.045, with the intent to mislead or cause another person to |
155 | believe that such vehicle is an official vehicle of that agency |
156 | and is authorized to be used by that agency which could deceive |
157 | a reasonable person into believing that such vehicle is |
158 | authorized by any of the agencies described above for use by the |

176 | purchases or upon the presentation and recordation of both a |
177 | driver's license and other identification showing any transferee |
178 | to actually be a member of such criminal justice agency or |
