Why is it?

Question

I have noticed that when I get called to an illegaly parked vehicle, the offender always feels the need to point out other cars on the street that are also illegaly parked, yet I have also noticed that motorist feel obligated to warn other motorist by flashing their lights that there is a police car running radar up ahead. Why is it you want to warn some of the public and drop dimes on the others.

Answer 1

Survival. When a shark is in the area all the fish do things to alert all the other fish. when already caught we want to minimize the punishment or offer you fatter fish to feed on. I would say Human nature but all nature acts this way. From a girl that Likes to Speed ( I am In Iraq now in the Army) Have a great day Officer. (PS My uncle PAPD died 9/11 WTC, he always got me outta trouble, I miss him soo much)

Answer 2

No one want anyone to get a ticket. By pointing out other illegally parked cars is to prove a mistake often made (change complete fault to more than self) hoping the police officer will understand that and give them and everyone a warning and break. By flashing lights are also a way of stopping people from getting tickets(speeding).

Answer 3

Flashing your lights to warn other motorist is illegal and can result in a more serious charge than speeding.

Answer 4

The offender is pointing it out to your dumb *** to make a point. That it is not a fair practice to issue him/her a citation unless you intend to do the same to all the guilty people in site.

We flash our lights to warn our fellow citizens that you are on the prowl trying to ruin our day.

Answer 5
