What does it mean when someone flashes his lights behind you?

[RadioKnight]

I was driving along katipunan this afternoon and the guy directly behind me was flashing his lights at me. Typically, Id interpret this as him urgently wanting to pass.. But since i was in the middle lane, and the lanes to my left and right were free, I didn't understand. Was my trunk open? Nope. Was i flat? Hindi rin naman.

Eventually he passed me on the right (passenger side). The driver had his window down, was wearing shades, and looked at me. I thought may isesenyas siya, wala, tumitig lang.

Was he taunting me to race?? Hehe I thought, "hindi naman siguro, coz that would be funny and crazy (aside from illegal and unsafe)." Anyone else experience this before? Or has done this to someone else? Whats up??

if you're hugging a certain lane, he wants you to speed ahead.
pero sabi mo nga nasa middle lane ka naman, & he's free to take the left & right lanes.

baliw yan sir.........

Dont worry about that, it happened to me a lot of times...he's just interested to see who's the homesome guy driving in front of him ! LOL!

plus 1 on this. Or probably after looking at you said "aayy ang gwapo na fafa!"
lol

well, sir, sa pagkaka-intindi ko, dalawa lang yan.
1. "It may mean "GET OUT OF THE LANE, YOU BUGGER"
2. Baka tine-testing nya lang ang bagong installed nyang HID?

It's hard to know what his intentions were since you said you were in the middle lane.

I flash my lights for 2 reasons:

1. To signal a car travelling slowly in the fast lane to move out

2. To signal that I am passing through. Eg I am in the middle lane and there's a 10 wheeler truck in the fast lane and another in the rightmost lane and they are travelling at the same slow pace. The car in front of me might misinterpret the flash as directed towards him but it's really for the trucks.

Question is, what's his car ?

Mataba ba yung driver ? Tapos medyo semi-kalbo, then naka lean ng sobra yung upuan ? Tapos naka shades nga .... at may yosi na hawak ? Hahahaha.

mukhang papansin lang yan sir.

Question is, what's his car ?

hahaha. baka yung owner type airplane

It's supposed to be a polite way of saying 'excuse me' or 'hello'. Though I don't know if that was meant for you.

Baka naman may nasalubong na kakilala sa opposite lane.
