Poland fines 47 drivers for flashing lights to warn of police checks

Polish police in Małopolska used a drone to identify and fine 47 drivers for flashing headlights to warn others of speed checks, a practice illegal under Polish law. The action signals an escalation in enforcement tactics using aerial surveillance, though the legal basis and precedent are established. This matters as it may deter the common practice of warning fellow drivers and raises privacy concerns over drone-based policing.
