For all I know, they may not have been handing out FPNs at all, it could just be a operation to raise awareness.
Does that ever actually happen?

I can think of better priorities for the CPS.
The article doesn't say that the act of flashing headlights was the actual wilful obstruction the man was prosecuted for.
He could have been pulled over and asked not to flash his lights in such a manner as it might confuse other road users, and on your way, and decided to hang around instead and wilfully obstruct the officer in some way. For example.
How on earth could they prove that this is the reason that he flashed his lights??
Speed traps exist to discourage speeding. By law there has to be a sign saying "Police Slow" before them and/or a blue camera sign with the speed limit on it before the speed trap to warn drivers.
CPS worker ?
Let his tyres down.![]()
Interestingly the rules do require them to be positioned on safe roads where the general speed of the traffic is above the speed limit.
Think that ought to read "on safe roads where the general speed of the traffic is of a sufficient level to raise some cash"
The driver is going to appeal...
