generally dont see many but only had it 2 weeks had one blank me and 2 wave back, flash lights first then wave if they wave, with the flashing thing if its a speed trap i'll either flash and then thumbs down or turn hand sideways and wave up and down meaning slow down, just so u knw.

We just give a little flash of lights, coz most scooby drivers we see don't respond, they either look the other way, hold their head up high or completly ignore. Where are all the peeps that acknowledge you??

I don't flash. Someone else could misinterpret it and have an accident.
