Are anti-rear-end flashing lights allowed by traffic police?

Not allowed. Installing anti-rear-end flashing lights is considered illegal modification. If caught by traffic police, they will be forcibly removed and a fine will be imposed. The following are the relevant regulations: "Technical Specifications for Safety of Power-driven Vehicles Operating on Roads": The lamps of motor vehicles shall be installed firmly, intact and effective, and shall not loosen, damage, lose function or change the direction of illumination due to vehicle vibration; all lamp switches shall be installed firmly and operate freely, and shall not switch on or off automatically due to vehicle vibration. The position of the switch shall be convenient for the driver to operate. Except for turn signals, hazard warning signals, and marking lamps installed and used by fire trucks, ambulances, engineering rescue vehicles and police cars, other external lamps are not allowed to flash. "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Illegal installation of alarms or marking lamps shall be forcibly removed and confiscated by the traffic management department of the public security organ, and a fine shall be imposed.
