I don't care about deers in the road or whatever else you guys are talking about, but as far as the OP, and flashing people that are speeding, that there is a speed trap ahead is not how you help anyone out. well, except for helping someone breaking the law, get off scott free. The thought that anyone thinks this is a good idea, baffles the heck out of me.

You have a different philospohy of the law than I do.
I believe speed traps and speed limit are arbitrary and exist, in almost every case, as a source of revenue and nothing more.
You look at them some other way apparently, as such you think reminding someone on the road to exercise caution or to slow down..is trying to get them to speed.
Since you don't flash people you may not really pay attention, but 9 times outta 10.. I can't tell if the guy coming the other way is speeding or not. I assume most people can't. It's a courtesy.. "hey.. wise up, check your speed, exercise caution coming up."
If YOU INTERPRET it as "yo cops ahead cool it on the speeding" then that is YOUR perspective influencing them. There is no tangible proof that this practice exists for the sole purpose of avoiding speed traps.
