Did you know the meaning of red flashing lights on a police car ?

If you’re driving and suddenly see a police car behind you flashing red lights in your rear-view mirror, it’s a way for the police to communicate with you.

Red lights mean they intend to stop you

It’s not just a warning — it’s a direct request for you to safely pull over.

You should slow down calmly, look for a safe spot where you can stop without blocking traffic or endangering yourself, and park your vehicle.

Once you’ve stopped, wait inside your car unless instructed otherwise by the officers.

Ignoring red police lights could be considered as refusing to stop, leading to a €200 fine and the loss of 4 points from your driving licence.

Now you know!

Red lights = Police want you to stop safely.

Drive safe and stay informed!
