California tried to do that to motorist that they "thought" was signaling a radar trap and lost terribly so they gave up. It started back in the CB days when a trucker would announce on his CB "my bird dogs barkin'".. It violates free speach. Gerry if I was in your neck of the woods I'd fight it..

And you would be right to fight it. But would you win, I'm not sure. I'll have to see if giving the ticket is legal.

Out here, there are too few cops spread too thin to operate like that.

They double up here quite often.
At three majors intersections around the local hospital, lots of accidents happen. Several times a year there are at least 6 cruisers positioned to watch for red light runners. And speeders coming into the area. They make a lot of people unhappy.

I wave at every biker. It's the way I ride, it's a habit. And I really don't give a sh*t if they wave back or not.

It all depends what kind of mood I am in...I usually wave, but sometimes wait till I am waved at first.

I wave at all bikes If I can, Now that I put on a fairing on I think the HD guys think I am a Harley because they all wave now hahah, are pissed when I go by and realize I not a HD i would guess, I would be nervise to buy a HD because I think they give you some kind of needle to give the Attidude LOL Love it :):) Oh at Rallies I don't wave much, just too many bikes and I only have a limited amount of energy :)
