    Default I didn't wave.

    I think it would have been rude under the circumstances.

    The LEO was running Ka rear-facing constant-on. This guy could have saved himself some money and time if he had just had an RD. Even a Cobra would have picked up on this thing.

    A beep of the horn would be acceptable.

    Nope, I passed the cop one way, then went back to get a vid of it. When I came back around I saw the guy had him a 'vette pulled over and was sad. Would not do that to a fellow 'vette owner. I did do it to a civic the other day, though

    Cool Vid.

    A Cobra probably would have detected this....as he was being pulled over.

    lulz, that's a good candidate for addition to the speeders dictionary. mmmm let me see, your alias is too non-discript to be good gloss so I have to make something up. Let's see. How bout this.

    Speeders Dictionary: Carmatose : Lacking the interest or motivation to warn a fellow speeder of a speed trap ahead by tapping the brakes or flashing headlights.

    Nice video! I like how you're cruising at 70+ at only 1,500 RPMs.

    I flash my lights at oncoming traffic headed to a speed trap and sometimes pounce the breaks a bit if I'm getting an alert, but I doubt most people notice.

    Do people notice if you wave to them to slow down?
