Don't Forget The Wave!

13/5/2016

0 Comments

 
I am a big believer in letting cars into my lane in traffic. It's a simple thing that is easy to do and it is very karmic in that I always seem to receive the same courtesy back when I'm trying to turn into a busy flow of traffic. When this happens to me I always give a wave to show my appreciation. Unfortunately not everybody shares this view. There is nothing more disappointing than making the effort to let somebody in and have them just zoom right on past with no acknowledgement.

The courtesy wave is easy to do. It can range from a wide arc wave down to the single finger above the steering wheel, but how you do it doesn't matter. The important thing is that you are thanking the person who let you in for making your day easier and increasing the likelihood that you will be offered the same courtesy in the future.

Come on people let's not let the courtesy wave become a relic of the past! Use it whenever necessary and do your part in making the world a better place.
