How do you know if they're not taking the picture because they think its funny
My car isn't nearly unique enough, if they're taking pictures of it I'd get paranoid.
In the same subject, I once got confronted for looking inside cars I liked to see if they were manual or auto.
saw someone lean out a car window and point their phone at car
I quickly braked and pulled off the road
don't know why they decided to take picture, I was in right lane driving a little fast but not all that aggressive and wasn't hooning
I think I was quick enough that they couldn't have gotten a pic of my plates so I feel good about that though

So many good car feels br/o/s
I love the feeling when I get home from a 40+ mile drive with one mile left of charge.
The majority of people that I've seen take pictures of my car are either 12-15 year olds of all races, or 16-18 year old Asians and Indians.
Other than that: 2 white girls in a Suzuki Swift, and people that I've met up with from Veeky Forums.
>>Having a young boy point at your car as you go past
Oh man, that has happened to me a lot of times. Both boys and girls. It's gotta be the popup headlights.
Please don't bully. My car is cute and likeable.
Kys, shilling for Tesla's garbage in every thread. I hope you save up to buy that model S that's your 'dream car' and it autopilots you right into a fucking brick wall at 100mph

I was talking about the Volt. It's a good feeling because I was able to do all my driving on electricity without the gas engine coming on.
I was going to the public pool this past summer and there was a white NA Miata with its roof down parked by the sidewalk.
It had a sequined steering wheel cover, and a veterinarian license plate cover.
The parking lot was nearly full, but there was an open spot right next to the car, so I pulled in and parked my own white NA Miata there with the roof down. The only differences on my car were the removed sunvisors, the Momo steering wheel, and GLC sticker on the bumper.
Hours later, near closing time, I was sitting on the poolside and looking out at the parking lot, and the owner, a female veterinarian and her young daughter came out. The woman stopped dead and did a double-take when she saw our cars. Then she gets this big grin on her face, takes a picture with her phone, and starts checking out my Miata while her little girl skips around the cars excitedly.
Cutest thing I'd ever seen.

>People walk by and tell their son that they use to own that car model year even though they probably never did.
Once I was following a mom van and could see 3 lil tots in the back seat messing around. They kept turning around and making faces at me, and I popped up the headlights and they DIED.
Felt nice
I've done the headlight pop up so many times to kids. It's the big smiley mazda face they love it.
That's really cute user

Since I’m not a scary bear-looking guy and I’m pretty young, parents will let their kids ask me about it and sit on it for pictures. It is a pretty bike even though it’s nothing special (Hyosung GV250)

i do this often. i've never been confronted about it. i'm a disheveled blue collar white guy so i can imagine that one day i'll be looked at as some punk kid trying to break into a car.
I once saw a guy in a truck through my rearview making motions with his hands like popups to his kid in the passenger seat so I hit the button and the kid lost it
brought some warmth to the cold black turnip I have for a heart

Thank you, stranger. Feels good.
Any other signals people usually do? I'm a literal autist and if spoken language is difficult for me imagine driver to driver communication. Like how do people who want to race you signal and what are the unwritten rules?
I don't know. But usually if someone flashes their lights, they're warning you about cops up ahead.
You really should have got her number

If people want to race they'll look at you with dagger eyes and needlessly rev their engine.
Flashing brights usually means cops up ahead, or cop is nearby. Also could be used for "turn your headlights on dick fuck".

I worked at Target and Petsmart.
Target was my first job ever. Started as a cart attendant and then moved inside to cashier and sales floor. Cashiering is the fucking worst...
Petsmart was actually one of my favorite jobs because I enjoyed my coworkers, and with that particular position, I didn't really have to interact much with customers. That job kinda left a bad taste in my mouth though after things went sour with a girl.
That was back in 2009-2010. I was driving a '94 Civic that I didn't give a shit about.
I don't even smoke anymore.

You autistics sure crack me up sometimes
It's a fucking bike
>implying they aren't taking pics to make fun of you
I see nice cars every day and have never taken a picture of one. I HAVE taken dozens of pictures of cars I make fun of with friends on snapchat.
Makes me think of all those braindead cunts who insist on holding their phones up at concerts. Can't people just have a moment anymore without recording everything?

yea he's just a butthurt german yuropoor troll upset because his shitty companies bet the farm on diesel and are going broke.
if someone turns on their high beams right before/as they pass you, it means you're an asshole and you have your high beams on
if someone flashes their lights before they pass it could mean hey (they know you or have the same car as you) or just slow down fgt. usually because of cops ahead, but possibly caution for any other road conditions they know about that you don't that might cause you to want to slow down or pay more attention
if you are on a four lane highway on the left lane and they flash it means you should move over and probably quit riding in the passing lane, or try to pass whatever vehicle a little faster or just give up and get behind the other car, but ye
if you're in the right lane and someone is beside you and someone directly behind you flashes their lights it means the guy in the passing lane is a nigger who is matching your speed and he can't get thru so it would be cool if you sped up and create some distance for him to get by the other guy
if someone passes and cuts in front of you and turns their e-lights on and starts slowing down, they want you to pull over for some reason probably. maybe to mug you or bc they think you're a cool guy and want to talk. one time I kept up with a guy going aggressive weaving on the highway and he did this and we talked for like a minute and he ended up showed me a faster back route to dc
if someone flashes their lights behind you and puts their e lights on it means the same thing but with a bit less force
if someone comes up right next to you and stays there for a bit on like a four lane highway and they honk three times it means they want to race you and after the honk you go full throttle
if someone revs the shit out of their car next to you they want to drag race as soon as the light turns on. possibly a cop trying to bait you
I've also decided to caravan with some random people that I notice drive pretty well imo. I sometimes flash my lights when I turn off the road and our time together has to come to an end. so like "bye"
that's really all I can think of
>as soon as the light turns on
*green
flashed lights can also mean the same as a wave so like "thank you" or just some sort of acknowledgement
say you're on a road sitting there waiting to turn across traffic and a guy flashes their lights, it (probably) means you can go ahead and turn before their car, they'll slow down for you. if they see you have no visibility it can also mean that you're clear to pull out, but that's not something you probably want to rely on so inch your nose out fairly slowly
I'm also somewhat autistic but I drive a lot and ride a motorcycle too
Nothing beats that, NOTHING, NOTHING.

Flashing brights could mean:
-Cop
-Something ahead, slow down or be cautious
-Trying to tell you something about your car (light out, brights on)
its all just context
>new tire smell fills the garage
Flashing their lights at you could also mean there's something wrong with your car (YOUR lights aren't on, tire is flat, tail light's broken, etc)
>have nice car

>get tons of looks, compliments and stares

Oh Yunyun, I'm so sorry for you.
It's really easy, you just hold both gas and brake pedals when you turn the car on, but don't turn the engine over

Thanks user. Also >four lane highway, I fucking wish. Shitty ass Sweden almost always have 2 lane.
Making driving buddies in the highway is the best. You are going on a long trip and a driver of a similar style to yours shows up and you are going in the same direction. You stick together and start helpings each other out when merging and stuff. That little wave as you part was is the ultimate bro feel
