    Likewise, I flash my lights constantly - sometimes I do it in the work car too!

    I'd be interested in seeing how many demerit points some of these drivers have on their licence. I suspect a number would be close to 100 points and have only managed to hold on to their licence for so long because people have warned them about cops ahead. Thanks for that. I like sharing the road with people who have shown that they don't give a shit.

    I pretty much stick to the speed limits but it is always good to get a warning.

    Well finally got to see the classic KB helicopter wave cop warning today. White CBR coming towards me on Taupo bypass.
    Thanks mate but by god does that look ridiculous... and the cop was 5km up road....
    Just flash your lights and be done with it.

    And I flashed a cop and he didn't give a damn.... guess he already knew there was an Asian in the bank up road that I was warning him about....
