Flashing headlights to warn about speed cameras can now result in a £1,000 fine.

Flashing headlights to warn others about speed cameras is illegal and can result in a fine up to £1,000, according to the Highway Code and the Police Act 1997. This penalty is higher than the minimum for speeding, which is £100 and three points. Rule 110 of the Highway Code states that headlight flashing should only notify other drivers of one's presence, not to warn about cameras or intimidate.
