Hells Angels are moving into my area for the first time. I have a generally negative view of them, but have some friends who feel otherwise. I would love to hear your experiences related to the Angels specifically, but “1%” clubs as well.

      Isn’t that something people do? In Germany many people flash their high beams if there is police, speed trap or danger.

        Yes, many people want other drivers to drive recklessly without risk. I was wandering what’s the other guy’s motivation was.

          You’re basing all this on a whole lot of assumptions:

          • The only way one can get a ticket is because they were reckless
          • Driving outside the law, regardless of time and place, is automatically risky
          • Speed traps really make the roads safer for everyone

            Where I live all speed traps are clearly marked. Yes, their purpose should be to make people slow down, not catch them by surprise. But we’re talking about warning about caps,nort just speed traps. If it’s just unmarked speed traps I agree.
