multi grooves - i totally agree that flashing your lights is deterred by the highway code.
however, the highway code is not the law and it does not bind the court. it is one factor amongst many that the court takes into account in deciding liability for an accident.
a perfect example is the case i meantioned above, where the court found that the driver who flashed their lights was not liable for the accident.
