What is your favourite acknowledgment when letting someone out of a junction..
Mind is the hand up
Not a big fan of the hazard lights, feels impersonal
The old indicate right left right feels like a fair ground |

My favourite acknowledgement is the driver actually reacting to you flashing your lights to let them out. I've seen drivers waiting for ages at a junction and not being let out by others, I've flashed em and they keep looking at me. I'm beginning to believe they want me to get out and knock on their window and say "would you like to merge into the lane?".

"Why not do a good deed without feeling the need for acknowledgement."
Cos theres no point. If theyre not prepared to say thank you they dont deserve to be let out. And its mostly silly women. |

Oh there are. In buckets. But I have often regretted letting people out. You stop, flash, and they continue to chat or look the other way. Then the traffic behind starts to beep at me. Sometimes, they then get the message and emerge, still chattin and on their merry way without so much as a nod. And unfortunately it is not the small minority. Grrrrr |

"Hand up and a little smile. If someone lets me out, I wave and actually say thank you, even though I know they can't hear me 
Me too.
And you really do feel better if you let someone out...."
I agree, it's a little act of kindness. |
