Do any of you "flash your headlights" at oncoming traffic to warn of a "Speed Trap" ahead?

Nope, I only flash my lights for DANGER. Danger to me is a deer right on the side of the road or something like that. Not my fault if you want to be speeding and get caught.

No, it is illegal to do that plus if they are breaking the law, they deserve to be caught.

Yes, on occasion when I see the speed zone as a "trap"

There are far more dangerous things in driving than speeding (within reason). Failure to yield or stop at posted signs comes to mind. Passing on the right where there is no lane. Turning without signaling. Driving slowly and gawking at things. Weaving through traffic abruptly. Catching speeders is just the easiest and most consistent way to generate revenue from fines.

Equating speeding to driving under the influence of alcohol is extreme.

I don't flash my headlights at anyone unless it is to let them know that their headlights are off. I disagree that all speeders should be jailed, that's ridiculous. If someone has been caught speeding many times at excessive speeds (say 15 miles or more over the limit) then yeah, jail might be an option :)

I have been know to .......

No because I assume they won't even know why I'm flashing my lights.

No. Like the other answer, I flash high beams if the car coming toward me has theirs on. I turn them off and back on to let them know theirs are off. And yes I falsh several times rapidly for the Deer by the road ( or almost as often, cows )

I never flash my headlights at anybody because it's stupid and annoying and I hate when people do that to me for no real reason. I think you might be wrong about the speeders cause more crashes then drunk people because I think it's the other way around and also drunk drivers are more likely to kill people because they are in no form to drive and it's illegal to be drunk while driving and that is why they go to jail. When people speed they know what they are doing and their driving ability is not impaired and people speed all the time and usually always go 10mph or more so why lock up half the world when you can just lock up the idiots who choose to drink and drive. Don't be so ignorant about this because this law will never change and maybe you should stop drinking and driving if you are so concerned about this. I will speed regardless but at least I know what I'm doing unlike a drunk driver. See the difference? People who drink and drive and get a DUI should not be able to drive a car for at least 3 years because they are a danger to the road and can kill somebody.

you might get shot at too (that's a gang rite) any who flashes their headlight is then shot at
so you want to get shot?
