As a cyclist, when some driver waves at me to go contrary to the rules, I do something that looks like it's going to take 15 seconds or so like adjusting my helmet, pulling out my phone to check the time, etc. Seems to work with no fuss from the drivers who think they are doing me a favor.


yep, you can do this in cars too when someone is intent on waving you on contrary to the right of way, i usually take an extended sip of coffee or water while looking the other way or at least not directly at the other person (helps to have sunglasses on); works a treat
