I would guess that it depends on (1) which country's laws apply, and (2)
what the commercial use is - e.g. an advert will infer something about a
vehicle from its appearance.  If, however, it is incidental to the picture
(not the main subject) it would not matter, providing it was in a public place.

Am I correct?
