Reminding someone to turn their lights on

Reminding someone to turn their high beams off.

Letting someone know your are coming around a tight, narrow turn are just a few off the top of my head.

Notifying someone that they are speeding and a police cruiser is enforcing the speed up ahead isn't really a good use of flashing the lights in my opinion.

The illegality of it probably is no doubt going to be difficult to enforce but, again the freedom of speech issue will be interesting to see argued.

So maybe it could be argued it should be illegal - at night. During the day I see no issue, besides free speech you could also say it's a form of civil disobedience.

I Wear Pants;937518 wrote:No it couldn't be argued that. If it's at night you will certainly notice if your lights are on and then you turn them off.

There is no reason flashing your lights to indicate a policeman is ahead should be illegal. It'd be the same if we made it illegal to tell someone "hey, don't jaywalk right now, there's a cop right there". That would be stupid so is ticketing people for doing something that results in people slowing down.

As for the parking meter thing, how do they justify that?

Steel Valley Football;937613 wrote:It varies by city, but its justified by not wanting cars to exceed their time limit; therefore allowing others their right to have ample open spaces in which to park. My guess is it could also be considered obstruction of justice.

I Wear Pants;937625 wrote:How does it allow cars to exceed their limit? If some random dude does or doesn't put money in my meter to keep it from expiring it has no effect over when I am returning to move my vehicle.

Steel Valley Football;937634 wrote:Meters have limits (usually two hrs) as to how long you can park by them, as do streets. Meaning, you can't stay two hrs by one meter then jump up a space and park for two more hrs. Allowing people to feed meters, in theory, permits exceeding the parking time limit.

Laley23;937651 wrote:No it wouldnt. They can still ticket you for being there over 2 hours if thats th law. Otherwise, how does anyone know I didnt walk out at 1 hour and 45 minutes and put more money in myself...

that law could never be enforced. Obstruction of Justice is another issue, but the time limit I cant see ever working.

I Wear Pants;937673 wrote:Like Laley said, this doesn't allow anyone to circumvent the system as the system is inherently based upon a meter maid noticing the car there for more than two hours. Because otherwise I could walk out and endlessly feed my meter before it expires and never get hit with a penalty.

This is the tiny **** that adds up to a lot of money wasted in litigation. Feeding someone else's meter should not be illegal.

Steel Valley Football;937672 wrote:I promise you that's their reasoning. And you can bet your sweet bipee it can be enforced. Go try to fight it lol.

Laley23;937738 wrote:Ok, that still has nothing to do with someone feeding the meter of someone else. It is about someone noticing the car there for longer than the allotted time.

I did live in Chicago for a summer with my GF and would always feed her/mine and friends meters. Meter man police guy always told me it was illegal. I gota 1 warning under my windshield all summer. We had a 3 hour limit on the street. I would get in my car, drive around the block and park it again. Never got a ticket.

And just because you never got a ticket doesn't mean it's legal.

Steel Valley Football;937683 wrote:Is nice that you have an opinion about it. No one gives a fuck about it though, and most importantly not the parking authority. Regardless, it's certainly a reasonable law.
