    there is always hendering a police investigation...but mostly no, it's not against the law and even if they did site you for it, they'd have a very hard time proving that was the reason you were flashing or that you even were considering most cars have flux in there beams anyway.

    LOL.

    I doubt they could actually ticket you. You could always say you thought their high beams were on and their lights were blinding you and you were signalling for them to shut them off.

    Also, to interfere with justice, they would have to prove you were preventing them from stopping a lawbreaker. How can they prove the people you flashed were speeding and breaking the law?

    Isn't the law that you can't have high beams on with any oncoming cars within 500 feet and same-way cars within 300 feet? So, I guess flashing them with cars within those ranges can be ticketed.

    Just buy a Valentine 1 and fuhgedabowdit!
