Yes the local shire vehicles here , the roadside maintenance trucks and the tractors that slash the road verge , all have the flashing orange pimple in a prominant position. The local farmers with road registrered tractors, some have the rotating orange light onboard ( Is it a compulsory legal requirement for road use tractors ? ) The SES vehicles have them as well.
