I live in a somewhat remote region of the Colorado Rockies. There are frequently deer and elk on the roads I drive. Lately, when I signal to drivers that there is wildlife on the road (3 quick flashes of highbeam), people react by turning and leaving on their brights and blinding me. What is this behavior? Is it aggression? Is it ignorance? I am rarely warned of wildlife on the road by other drivers anymore, yet people are very keen to punish...
>>28597169You're giving the universal signal for "turn your lights on"
>>28597169maybe they want to get a clearer look at your lovely pickup. i know i do
>>28597170>You're giving the universal signal for "turn your lights on"Pretty much this.>one flashget attention>two flashescop>three flashesturn your lights on
>>28597175Well, since you asked>>28597170A brief series of two to three flashes of your high beams is the most common and effective way to warn oncoming drivers of wildlife. It is widely recognized as the "watch out for deer" pattern.
>>28597188>It is widely recognized as the "watch out for deer" pattern.In the remote locations, flashing your brights is a warning. In populated locations, it's considered aggressive. It's just how people use it and probably an indicator that city slickers are passing by and/or encroaching on your home.
>>28597169>What is this behavior? Is it aggression? Is it ignorance? I am rarely warned of wildlife on the road by other drivers anymore, yet people are very keen to punish...Haven't you seen how the country has been going to shit for years now?
Can i buy that truck ? want to personally send it to the crusher haha
>>28597298Of course! And be my guest, haha. The truck is asking for 25k for now (I am open to offers :)
>>28597169That is an enormous dog
>>28597169I just honk rapid fire whenever I see deers, the animals run away and drivers know there are threats around.
living in the rockies sucks dick I live in northern idaho and there is no opportunity for pussy out here I'm an 18 year old autist and the young people that do exist are all normies. there isn't a huge population to find other autists due to raw numbers. im still a virgin and would have to travel 100s of miles to a city to hit up a dating app to get laid off of.
I'm basically expecting a family of deer around every single corner the second I'm off the interstate in the mountains so some chucklefuck giving me a lightshow is not expected or even helpful.
>>28597211If I'm driving towards you it's>look out/be carefulIf I'm behind you it's>get the out of the left lane if you're not overtaking you fucking motherfucker
i was taught to flick your lights from low to off three times quick, avoid flashing your brights in others eyes, especially repeatedly.no one can ignore the intentionality of someone actually flipping the switch all the way off and back.it also helps when driving large vehicles on the highway signalling that a pass has been completed. flash of the brights, you dont know if someone hit a bump or not.quick lights completely out, then back on, CLEAR signal.try it.
>>28597169Look up the demographics of your state 10 years ago vs now.>>28597703>no opportunity for pussy out hereYou skin is poop colored lmao.
>>28597721Self satisfied tourist fag. Im sure you love driving these roads 10 under for an hour plus. I live here, drive here every day, and know to expect elk and deer on the 50 mile stretch of 65mph two lane windy mountain pass between my town and the grocery store. A signal that there are very likely animals within the next mile is extremely helpful, especially in poor conditions.People used to understand courtesy and appreciate warnings, now everyone is so egotistical they just look for reasons to scoff other people.
