    Simple things like knowing that if you're driving slow, there are other people who would want to get ahead of you. Let them.

    God knows that any relief available is welcome.
    Well, I have a tinted SUV, I always open my window, give a friendly wave to say thank you. Makes driving less stressful too.

    napansin ko naman mga truck sa NLEX, when they overtake, they switch of their signal lights until the head back to the middle lane. so alam mo na hindi pa siya tapos magovertake. i guess it's some kind of courtesy for other motorists to know.

Napaka helpful neto lalo na sa STAR Toll ways yung from Lipa to Bats. City and vice versa. Oh well we could really give in our own little courtesy contribution on the roads.
    We practice something this when i drive on our two-lane highways up north (i learned this from my Titos when we would drive in convoy). When it's clear to pass, we keep our LEFT turn signal on but when there's an approaching vehicle, we signal RIGHT. Pag unsure, no signal.

    I agree here. Even when just giving way at an intersection can make a big difference to yours, or someone else's day.

    Ok na yung dalawang magkasunod na busina pag nagkatapat na kayo as a thank you.
    Yung ilaw pag wala ka sa Romania at dito sa Pinas, ibig sabihin "freeze/get out of your way", sisingit ako.(smiley)

    pero wag yung mahabang busina ha dapat pindot pindot lang
    Dati, nung dumaan ako sa Manila, may isang mobile patrol na napakabagal, pparang pedicab lang ang takbo, nag overtake yung taxi sa harapan ko, yung sumunod ako, nag short tap lang ako ng busina para bang nag sasabi ng "excuse me", biglang wang wang yung dalawang sigang pulis, pinahinto ako at parang gusto maghanap ng kaso. sinabihan ko na taga Federation of Filipino Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry kami, ayon, sabay saludo yung dalawang pulis. Siga talaga mga mobile pulis dyan sa Manila, kaya ngayon, pag ganyan kabagal, di na ako bumubusina, sunod nalang ako kung may nag overtake. Di naman kasi reasonable na pahahabain mo yung trapik sa daan dahil sa takbong pedicab ka diba?

    I always wave or tap my horn twice to say thank you pag pinagbigyan ako ng kasalubong ko sa mga masikip na daan, regardless of kung truck, car o motorcycle pa ang kasalubong ko.

    Sa province namin, during night time truck drivers would automatically switch to low beams pag nakasalubong mo sila sa highway.
