North Yorkshire's Assistant Chief Constable feels warning other drivers of speed camera vans helps them do their job.
Flashing you lights to warn other drivers of speed camera vans could technically an offence but North Yorkshire's assistant Chief Constable says he welcomes the practice.
Mark Pannone says the whole point of the safety vans is to slow drivers down and flashing encourages drivers to do just that.
ACC Pannone says that speeding is one of the key areas North Yorkshire Police are working to tackle as it has a big impact on safety on the county's roads.
While fixed speed cameras have repeatedly been deemed an unsuitable solution for the largely rural county, the North Yorkshire force has insisted the vans are used effectively to deter speeding at sites of accidents.
