What's this?

You see that guy over there? We arrested him for "mopery."

“What's mopery?”

“Mopery is exposing yourself to a blind person.”

Does any state require, or even suggest using flashers during rainstorms? -- EDGEMAN 06/05/2017 7:21PM

I would think someone running naked would be a distraction. ** -- MikeVT85 06/06/2017 10:54PM

Flashing only if stopped and off the road. Otherwise, lights on. -- pirkster05 06/06/2017 10:31AM

Nc requires lights on when wipers are on but people -- fordham 06/06/2017 09:03AM

It's is a good way to keep me from reacting to brake lights. Drives (npi) -- IB4TECH 06/05/2017 9:39PM

I known some vehicles where the flashers override the brake lights -- Hokie in CT 06/06/2017 11:39AM

Bottom line is, if not an emergency, don't use the flashers. ** -- IB4TECH 06/06/2017 11:44AM

It's illegal in VA -- 48zip 06/05/2017 7:31PM

My bad. The law now says they're OK if traveling less than 30 mph. -- 48zip 06/06/2017 07:34AM

I don't know of a law requiring it, but I've done it many times.... -- MP4VT2004 06/05/2017 7:25PM

If you have your lights on, that should be enough. ** -- BobG 06/05/2017 8:10PM

Nope illegal or not if you are moving slow -- 48tnhokie 06/05/2017 11:45PM

That's fine in daylight, but wrong in rain and poor visibility. -- pirkster05 06/06/2017 10:33AM

The flashing light also aids in depth perception, which is key in downpours ** -- 133743Hokie 06/06/2017 09:52AM

It actually does the opposite. It's like trying to follow strobe movement. -- pirkster05 06/06/2017 10:37AM

Not in rain. The flahsing results in continued refocusing -- 133743Hokie 06/07/2017 10:19AM
