Judge rules that we can flash our headlights at others to warn of speed traps


This past week a trial judge in St. Louis decided that drives are allowed to exercise their first amendment rights and flash their headlights at other motorists to warn them that there is a speed trap in their near future.

This is the result of a lawsuit filed by the ACLU of Missouri after a man was ticketed for flashing his lights at oncoming motorists to warn of the oncoming trap. He claimed that the ticket violated his constitutional rights and that turned out to be true.

Finally. A judge with some common sense. There is no reason why we can't warn each other about speed traps. Most of them are set up in scandalous manners and only undertaken in order to pay the salaries of policement. They have speeding ticket quotas to meet each month. I'm shocked that a judge sided with us proles on this one because i've only heard of the opposite decision being made throughout recorded history until this decision
