This is a very common "urban Legend" it has never been documented but the story has been passed around for 7-10 yrs now. I heard the same thing. In a book about urban legends I read that this is a myth. I do a lot of research for a magazine about urban myths and such. This one has popped up 3 time in the past year but no police department in the U.S. will confess to having this to happen in there area.

A police officer who works with the DARE program passed this warning on.....

If you're ever driving after dark and see an on-coming car with no headlights turned on, DO NOT flash your lights at them! This is a common

gang member "initiation game" that goes like this: the new gang member under initiation drives along with no headlights and the first car to flash their headlights at him is now his "target". He is now required to

turn around and chase that car and shoot at or into the car in order to complete his initiation requirements.

Make sure you share this info with all the drivers in your family!! Stay

safe!!
