How they say "Thank You" in Japan

[oj88]

Saw this on FB. It's one of those little gestures we can adopt locally.

Blink twice to say "Thank You". Not sure how quickly everyone could pick up on the idea. But there's no harm in doing it I suppose.

Or a simple wave.

I always use a simple nod and smile to say TY for courteous motorists and pedestrians.

ako, i wave or a tap to the horn. pero mas malimit, wave.... kita naman ako sa tints ko eh.









pag babae ang driver, ilalabas ko ulo ko tapos kinikindatan ko.

very polite ang mga japanese drivers. when i was there 2 weeks ago, the moment you step on the pedestrian lane, automatic na hihinto na yung sasakyan.

Or a simple wave.

I do the same. But if the car I am driving is heavily tinted I blink my headlights din.

madami din nyan sa edsa.. hindi nga lang pinapatay yung hazard lights.. so siguro dire diretsong thank you ang ibig sabihin non!

I usually say thank you by blinking my hazard lights three times

Got this habit from driving in Germany about 15 years ago.

Another thing they do? If there is a police car with a speed radar up ahead, the car on the opposite lane will blink their headlights twice to warn you

Now, that is real helpful...

Well, it all starts with giving way

Unfortunately dito, kailangan pang matuto mag give way, lalo na yung mga PUV

When I was in Tokyo, madalas ko makita yung hazard to say thank you. Then I started doing it nung pagbalik ko dito sa pinas.

^^^ That is what I was thinking too....

If this group here in tsikot (and I think we have a big group) could adopt these courtesy practices,- then there is hope that everyone will catch the passion for road safety and courtesy....

i'm doing this too, since i read here way back about this topic. The thing is, even though gusto mo lagi gawin, parang konting breed lang ang may kakayanan magbigay sa kapwa motorista. But its cool kung ikaw mabigyan ng ganyan TY sa road dito.
