Hey, just guessing...

Did you get this ticket on Krycul? The road between Bloomingdale & Causeway? Just wondering cause they had a pretty big bust set up there today and I know they got a lot of people for flashing headlights....

I have heard you can get the same ticket for tapping your breaks to warn others of speed traps.

Law or not, I can't believe you couldn't win that in court. I doubt if the cop would even show up for it.
