If there’s one thing all car enthusiasts can agree on, it’s that speed cameras are a nuisance. Back in the good ol’ days, you would see the van or a sign indicating a fixed camera long before you came to it. You’d slow down, pass by it and then speed up again. Don’t be shy, we all do it. Now, these so-called “life savers†hide behind bushes in unmarked vehicles, all the while speed related deaths and injuries continue to rise.

British Man Fined for Warning Other Drivers of Speed Trap by Flashing Lights
If there’s one thing all car enthusiasts can agree on, it’s that speed cameras are a nuisance. Back in the good ol’ days, you would see the van or a sign indicating a fixed camera long before you came to it. You’d slow down, pass by it and then speed up again. Don’t be shy, we all do it. Now, these so-called “life savers†hide behind bushes in unmarked vehicles, all the while speed related deaths and injuries continue to rise.

Why was he flashing his lights? To warn them of a speed trap, of course.
