flashing

Headlight flashing is the act of either briefly switching on the headlights of a car, or of momentarily switching between a headlight's high beams and low beams, in an effort to communicate with another driver or drivers. The signal is sometimes referred to in car manufacturers' manuals as an optical horn, since it draws the attention of other drivers.The signal is intended to convey a warning to other drivers of road hazards.

    Rear sidelights

    I was driving down the motorway in my MG4 Trophy and other cars kept flashing me. When I stopped I looked at the rear and noticed that my side lights were not on and only came on when I had the lights on full at the front. Is that supposed to be the case?

    Do you flash other mg4s?

    I have just got one and got flashed by a nice lady a couple of days ago. I mean with lights nothing naughty sadly. Is this a thing? Do others do this? I used to ride a motorbike and some nod and some don't. Is it like that?

    Flashing fellow MG4ists, MG4ers…. I dunno 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Is it mandatory to flash fellow MG4 drivers? I got flashed by another in my town, so of course I flashed back because let’s face it we are all better than everyone else. Has it really come to this? (With the lights btw). 😂😂😂😂😉
