Speed Trap Flashing..

KillerBee370 · 08-28-2011, 10:42 AM

The cops around my neighborhood sit in complete blackout on dark streets with the radar box attached to their car. I think a cop is supposed to have at least the parking lamps on while performing their "duties" as it were.

Anyway, my V1 always picks it up well in advance (saved me 3 times this month alone) and when I get to where the cop is hiding I hit the brights and light them up until I pass. Screw them. They are creating more of a hazard by sitting blacked out.

And yes I always warn other drivers if I can as well as utilize a "rabbit" if someone happens to be scooting pretty good.

I don't flash. I don't care about other people. They shouldn't be speeding and I'm not an enabler.

There are a few places where the cops always sit... and I always make overly sure to not go over the limit at all... and in those zones, people pass me, etc. I do not flash anything there.

I do however appreciate when people flash me at other times for unexpected areas. But i sorta feel like this... why enable speeders (even if I am one sometimes..)?
