Apparently flashing your lights is against the law in many states but if you turn your lights off and on, this is legal. You can then plead ignorance. (Look it up, I have only heard of this, never researched it)

If you are suggesting that turning off your lights during the evening hours, even if for just a moment, is legal you are certainly mistaken in California. You are required to have them on at all times during evening hours. There is no allowance for even briefly turning them off. Of course, it would be an incredibly petty ticket but so is writing someone for briefly flashing their brights.
