Strange that the truckers have time to blink their clearance lights
when you signal that it is OK to cut back in,
others, I guess are too self important
to indulge in a simple courtesy!
Just an FYI, I don't honk at anyone unless metal on metal contact is imminent. To thank you? Umm, no. Horns are for warning people. Unless they are on vw bugs. Those sound kind of happy.
If I wave, you won't see it anyway. Between the tinted glass in my back window, and the tinted glass on my cap, no one can see inside the truck anyway.
Less than two weeks ago, I drove 95 north for 800 miles. I must have flashed my lights at 50 semis. How many "thank yous?" Maybe 10 on a generous count. Trucks sometimes do and sometimes don't. Just like car people do. Well, except the ones that are "self important."
