Country-wide 9
Gen3 unique car: roof rack w/ black tape on the right front end + visible hood wrap w/ a red rectangle - usually all you need for Ghana
Gen4 = grey/white pickup w/ a front antenna, mostly fully or partly blurred
Plates: white private / yellow commercial, long or short - commercial traffic is so common you'll see both constantly
Nigeria: Pure white → Ghana.
Mostly flat w/ red soil; tropical vegetation, palms esp. toward the south
Taxis w/ multicoloured body panels - fenders & quarter panels always orange-yellow
Road lines always white - many paved roads have none at all
Typically wooden poles w/ 3 insulators on a metal crossbar
Kenya: Ghana tape car → Ghana; follow SUV → Kenya.
Patriotic paint everywhere: red/yellow/green + black star (flag colours)
The flag-colour painting habit is a strong Ghana vibe.
B&W striped signposts in cities; plain metal posts rural (striped posts exist elsewhere - combine clues)
Regional 3
Coverage limited & memorable: main roads + big cities, densest around Accra & Kumasi (Gen4 mostly near those two); paved/unpaved distribution map
Tape meta (region decider!): 'unpeeled tape' → southwest; 'peeled tape' → east + north; 'scotched tape' (2 white spots left) → north of Kumasi + west of Tamale
North = savanna (dry soil, sparse vegetation); tall mountain ranges → around Lake Volta + near Togo; dense forests + wild palms → southwest & east; tall coastal palms → mostly west
Specific spots 2
Road spotlights: unpaved dry-savanna roads → north of Wa; Sawla↔N10 = crisp new lines, E-W, lush savanna; Salaga↔Tamale (to Kpalbusi) = dirt road w/ moody overcast + dark purple-brown soil; Nkwanta↔Domanko = unpaved SE-NW w/ a powerline east; N2 east of Lake Volta = ridgeline SE + grey overcast; N1 east of Accra = flat, open, sparse; N1 near Elubo = brand-new dark asphalt w/ crisp middle line, no outers; Keta Lagoon road = sandy coastal + grey rocks
Rare cars: nature reserves = white car w/ visible mirrors (tape still there); Ankasa Game Reserve = whole front visible, roof vinyl + tape; Boabeng-Fiema Monkey Sanctuary = no tape/rack, black right mirror just visible
