RV wave
I think we should start the rv wave, if its not already. Jeep owners have the jeep wave and motorcycle owners have the motorcycle wave. So it only makes since that rv owners wave at each other.

We live in open range country. "high beam flash" means cattle on road ahead. We always wave.
We were taught in drivers ed that people flash their bright lights at others that "forget" that they have their own bright lights on and are too close to you. It's too difficult to even notice during the day. I have heard of flashing your lights on then off to alert someone of a speed trap.
Someone else mentioned that everyone waves down south. From my experience, you can expect more initiated waves and return waves anywhere rural, no particular part of the country. I have found that the nearer you are to large population centers, the less friendly people are in general.
Where I grew up and lived for 30 years it was not uncommon to pass friends or family while driving (very rural). It was also not uncommon to recognize someone in an oncoming vehicle and give a very slight swerve in their direction, at a safe distance of course.
