Whilst out riding shotgun with my 'White Cap' friend on his demo drive (see A Morning With A Pro) we were hanging well back from a HGV on the motorway in lane 1, intending to take the next exit. Perhaps 600 metres or so before the countdown markers begin Class1, through good observation and mirror work notices white vanman in lane 2 hanging back from us in case we intend to move out to pass the HGV, now the clever part...Class1 gives about 4 flashes of L/H Indicator, vanman now knows we have seen him and do not intend to move out, so goes past and on his merry way, but acknowledges the thoughtfullness as he goes by. Something so simple... everyone knows what everyone else is doing. Would anyone have thought of doing this, I would'nt, I would have waited for the countdown markers before signalling.
