Recognising DVSA Stop Signals

Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency officers have the power to stop vehicles on all roads, including motorways and trunk roads. They will attract your attention by flashing amber lights

💡Example

DVSA officers can stop your vehicle on any road by using flashing amber lights. For example, if you're driving on a motorway and see a vehicle with amber lights flashing behind you, you should safely pull over as it could be a DVSA officer signalling you to stop.
