I've seen people flashing their hazards to say thank you in London, but never in Scotland. I suppose non-verbal, everyday communication like this can still remain very localised since the usual vectors for cultural transmission (social media, television, film, etc.) don't include such mundane things.
- aosaigh 5y agoInteresting, I live in Glasgow and commonly see people do this (and do it myself)
- Daneel_ 5y agoTrucks and some cars use their hazards as thanks here in Australia too (two blinks).
- hornokpleas 5y agoWhen I lived in one part of South London, I never saw this, or at least so rarely that I never figured out what it was supposed to mean. After moving to another, more suburban, part of South London, I see it all the time. shrug
