The Rockies are already inches deep!!
I was browsing another regular haunt, the 'LandRoversonly.com' forum, & it appears that they already have a white coating!

I have flashing LED/Strobes mounted at the top front and back and stopped to help the Police on a breakdown in the outside lane of a dual carriage way and they never told me off for them and as long as your not creating a nuisance and use them properly whats the problem?? 8)
Terranosaurus:
All strobes are illegal (and so are most amber beacons come to that unless you have a valid reason for them). Its down to them not having equal on and off periods and flashing too fast. Will find the relevant info later.

sptb Erm I'd go check that However red is out anyway.
EU harmonises the colours. Yellow stays as a general Hazzard warning BUT:
Blue = Police, General EMS
Green = Medical (Paramed, Dr, Ambulance, Transfusion Service ETC)
Red = Fire Service, Fire Officer etc.
I dont actually know what would happen. Use blue and you are toast and someone was done very recently (last month) for using Green so they are enforced.
I'm curious about the regs as they apply though as I'll be fiting the dip/dim style flashers at some point for head/brake lights. Well when I make a set.

But surely over here, the Fire Service use blue, not red
Plus they'd only be rear mounted, not forward facing

A couple of Consultants have green LED strobes (at least I think they're green & not blue) on their vehicles, but they are on-call to RTIs
One even (I believe) uses her car as a medical vehicle at Motorcycle races, plus she's an ex-Chief Executive of WYMAS
