Given the finger for not waving !

[Grasmere9]

That’s cause your just a nosy sod

Do I know you?

 

[cmcardle75]

Our van is a black PVC, nobody waves, they think we are a prison van

Mine was a prison van. Well it had a cell in it for inebriated Welsh people, anyway.

I,m usually pretty good at acknowledging other motorhomers, but last Thursday on the A31 I was distracted so neglected, this caused the oncoming gentleman(other words are available) to give me the finger. I just wonder how he felt this added anything to the comaderie of the motorhoming community.

I always try to wave. Seems harmless and friendly to me. I usually speak to others when we stop too.

 

[Nirvanauk]

I’m a biker and always as knowkedge other bikers on the road. A nod, hand in air or headlight flash so also wave at other motorhomes.

The boss is a miserable git and doesn’t

If in a car do you wave to other care owners?

Wave to Motorhomers on the way to site. Arrive on site put out chairs, windbreake , open wine or beers and speak to no one.

 

[Simon Meadwell]

Dont get the waving thing.
Wave whilst driving then land on a campsite and nothing just ignorance.
Why wave because you have a motorhome i have a volvo and dont wave at other volvos.

 

[Littlewheels]

What makes me chuckle is some that you wave at, ignore you when you arrive at a site.

Some….you mean them all.

 

[Littlewheels]

Many Funsters are no better… Hi l see you are a Funster having seen the Sticker……Oh that …it was on the MH when l bought it….what are they scared of

Indeed. I have a tash and beard but I don't acknowledge others similarly encrusted........... whether male or female.

Ha ha yep they do that. Great many Germans up here in the north east off the ferry and that’s their greeting.
Can’t get away with it so just smile and wave
Smile. The bloody bike helmet is on ……

 

[125BEER]

When I mention "MH FUN"....oh that bunch of of miserable old gits....

 

[GAVLAD]

I wave as it annoys my wife.
She asks if I wave at cars when I’m in my car?
I find it funny when I get waved back. She finds it funny when they ignore me.
As for the OP, maybe they’ve only got one finger on their hand? A bit like Lancastrians? with eight on the other hand.

Living the life. They are just jealous

Funny this. May daily drive is a 110 Defender. 95% of Defender drivers wave/flash etc. Only exception are farmers.
Now, been motorhoming for a few months now, and I find that most people don't bother. I try, but it's a bit sad when you're totally ignored. I don't remember it being like this when I last motorhomed 16 years ago.

Cheers.

World is full of sad miserable gits though. Just remember we aren’t in that group

Nobody waves at me in my stealth camper. And that's how I like it.

Are you sure he was actually giving you the finger as we've noticed abroad especially that many just raise a single digit from the steering wheel when 'waving' ...

[KiwiKampers]

There was a time, not so many years ago, when I used to wave at any other vehicle on our roads, including horse and carts!

 

[bobnick]

I found myself waving to MHs couple of weeks ago whilst i was on my motorbike..................felt a right (k)nob(b)
In Ireland now i would say 90% wave,,,,,,even the rentals.

There are parts of the A31 where you need to concentrate on the road not on looking at the occupants of other vehicles. If he made time to wave, check that you had not returned his wave and then make another gesture then his eyes were off the road for far too long. Waving should come second to road safety.

 

[DumfriesDik]

We wave, try to vary it with the Mexican wave sometimes.

I even wave to people with the same car and colour as ours!

 

[Thornebt]

We recently had someone wave at us with a big foam yellow hand. It was hilarious.

Bet he would t do it if he was stood next to you !

 

[TheAleMan]

I think you are pretty safe in a big A class as nobody ever waves to us, well possibly the odd/confused coach driver

I can confirm this Only get waves from coaches now days.

 

[tribalbrit]

Leg out is a thank you to other drivers which may have pulled over to let you pass. Greetings is the left hand out, usually very close to theirs, coming the other way.

 

[Euromobil]

Nope no mistaking the gesture a stiffly extended digit, just thought it rude and unnecessary

Get the reg number and send him the gift of an anger management course. What ever is going on in his head isn’t good and you just have to feel sorry for him
