Speed traps are good income for the county plus there has been a huge increase in the number of traffic fatalities and accidents on the BI this year. There have been a couple news stories now about people warning of speed traps. One woman was pulled over for flashing her headlights warning of a speed trap. This is another recent one, the police are saying warning of speed traps is considered obstruction of justice:

WOMAN ARRESTED FOR HOLDING SIGN WARNING DRIVERS OF SPEED TRAP
I don't go to Hilo that often but it has gotten to the point where I am surprised when there *isn't* an accident being cleaned up at the intersection of HWY 130 and Ainaloa. The people coming out of Ainaloa seem to be extending their driving behavior out to the highway. Yeah, it is a dangerous intersection anyway.
