[FONT=comic sans ms][size=3]Ha ! I dare someone to leave their right or left turn signal on here.
[/SIZE][/FONT]:D:D:D
I personally won’t ride close enough to another driver to be able to see how many fingers he’s got stuck out for the various signals.
Guess I’ve been riding lone wolf for too long.
I think its just different variations of the wave.:laugh:
Hmmm, could some of these signals be interpreted as a 'finger thing'? :laugh:
I don’t use hand signals that just confuses people nobody knows what they mean anyway so just do the unexpected and that’s what people expect so that way you won’t confuse them 😁📞
What is the hand signal for driver ahead on cellphone?

These is good [B]BUT[/B] A big [B]BUT[/B] how many car drivers even have the [B]foggiest idea[/B] what any of that really means......I've been riding motorcycles since I was 15 years old/and have literally always had a motorcycle (OR TWO) in my garage since then (68 years old now) and many of them signals I, have [B]NO IDEA[/B] that there was even a single for that...and I thought that [B]I was pretty informed on using motorcycle lingo..[/B].. Sorry!!! :blush::blush::blush: ( I'm embarrassed)

I remember this stuff back when I was a member of AMA... they put out a lot of info.
Hand Signals are good for group rides. A lot of people don't have a CB or radio.

No reason to be embarrassed. I know these signals because I escort a lot of rides and it's group rides where these are used except for the most common, turn and slow down signals. We go over the most common that might be used on a group ride each and every time because not everyone knows them. And I use them all the time. They are totally unexpected so it gets the attention of jerks following too close behind you that is looking at their cell phone. So [B]always use hand signals[/B]. Who knows. We might start a new trend of drivers paying attention to the road.

Ronnie, you are from MA, no one uses signals there...LOL Unless it's for a parking space at Wal-Mart.:xzqxz::D:D:D
seriously though, the signals are nice to know but for me, If the lead bike uses turn signal and pulls off the road, I follow.
I have used the Cop signal for oncoming bikers and they just looked at me like I was crazy.
