It was slightly odd that a person would flash their headlights at me during daylight hours. I remembered that many years earlier my older sister taught me that sometimes people flash their headlights at you as a signal that a cop is up the road. I instantly slowed to the posted speed limit and sure enough I saw a California Highway Patrol on the side of the road shooting radar. I chuckled as I drove by him, thankful for the considerate oncoming vehicle that saved me from getting an expensive speeding ticket.
