To quote again from the guide: ‘You MUST NOT use hazard warning lights while driving or being towed unless you are on a motorway or unrestricted dual carriageway and you need to warn drivers behind you of a hazard or obstruction ahead.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, which began in 1929, collects information about crimes reported to the police. In 1982, the Bureau of Justice Statistics and the FBI sponsored a study of the UCR Program, with the objective of revising it to meet law enforcement needs into the twenty-first century. A five-year redesign effort to provide more comprehensive and detailed crime statistics resulted in the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS), which collects data on each reported crime incident. The UCR Program is currently being expanded to NIBRS.
