I don't flash to pass. Picked up something many years back while in Germany.

Left turn signal.

In fact, I was told by someone that you can get a fine in Germany for highbeaming, and that the correct protocol was, in fact, the left turn signal. He also duly noted that if you were traveling in excess of 260 km, that it probably was perhaps best to give a light tap on the highs regardless, just to let them know you're coming.

I started using the left turn signal thing, and I've actually even seen it catching on a bit.

People seem somewhat less "insulted" somehow, and yield faster...
