Alternatively you can flash your headlights at everyone, which will encourage 
them to slow down because they think there is a radar trap,
(I saw an interview where some head traffic cop was recommending this)

This is especially useful for trucks on highways, because if they think there 
is a speed trap somewhere they will not only slow down themselves, but also 
tell their mates!
