Do you wave?

We do in our rural community and don't in the urban areas. Ken Sweet

I do when I hit the six mile dead end road that leads home, except around some of the trickier corners that I may be doing a bit over the speed limit. I used to do the Jeep wave until I sold my old CJ-8 two years ago - that's still good with most Jeep owners, but not the four-door model owners (close to minivans anyway).

I almost always "wave" on our county road. maybe 50% of the other drivers wave 1st, or at all. I do notice woman wont usually waive unless I waived 1st.

When I was a kid, everyone waived if they weren't on a major road.

That's one of the things that changed for us out here, everyone waves. Where I did live we sometimes wave but with one finger.:laughing:

Cutting grass or working outside, I wave to everyone. Driving, I have noticed the wavers decline in the past 10 years so I don't usually wave unless i'm in an exceptionally good mood.....maybe that's what everyone else is thinking also. I see all the time that most people either have a phone stuck to their ear or their eyes downward and focused on texting. Pretty sad, really.

We live on kind of a pass-through road, and it's mixed. Locals wave, but we also get the straight-ahead stare and death grip you talked about... whereabouts are you in nys?

Hi Adirondack-- not recognizing Black Brook I had to look it up. You're way upstate-- very nice country around there!
I'm down here in the Catskills in Delaware County. Actually make it up in your general direction fairly often as I have friends in Glens Falls, but don't typically go much above Lake George.

Like everyone else, in the past 15 years. not so much. and the place I live is more urban than rural.. Growing up in Rural America, yes we ALL waved.. You didn't think anything about it, it was just something you did. When traveling back roads, some people still wave, and I wave back.. I rarely initiate it any more. I dunno, something has changed, and not for the better if you ask me. Maybe I will think about it a little more now that it has been brought to my attention.

Are you driving CJs or wranglers? If so you will notice how everyone who has one waves at you
