Spotted a MH-12 registered black Punto on Eastern Express Highway towards Mumbai from Thane last evening. Flashed lights and waved, got an acknowledgement. Who was it? That Punto looks wicked!

Two questions:

1) How does one communicate to the other BHPian when spotted?
2) If I'm being followed by a BHPian who "signals" to me, how do I acknowledge?

The answer for this FAQ should go to the first page of this thread.

I prefer old 1980s Amitabh Bachchan movies' gold smuggler code (made using a torch) - three slow flashes. Acknowledgement could be one flash of the tail lamp!

While in a four wheeler:
Signal: Three short honks, three short headlight flashes, three short honks.
Ack: One flash of the hazard lights (if in a four wheeler) or thumbs up (if on a two wheeler).

While on a two wheeler:
Signal: Maintain a safe distance and give a thumbs up.
Ack: Three short flashes of headlight (if in a four wheeler) or thumbs up (if on a two wheeler).

This is what I follow.


In other news:

Spotted this black Fiesta entering HP IDP campus this morning:

Folks, isn't it worth a poll? Would request Mods to have a poll with various options and let's choose a signal which most vote for.

Knock knock Mods! Worth a poll?

That is a KUV100. It is not your fault though there is too much similarities between both KUV and Kwid from the rear mainly.

Looks to be a fake, unless the aspect of the picture has changed.

That was what my initial thoughts were, so I stopped near him and asked him the same.

Ha ha Vignesh, how I wish, but that would meaning 'honking, flashing, honking, flashing' to get in front of him.
Noticed that some people blow the horn unnecessarily after reading that, may be to check if I really will slow down. And most of the times I do just that. Slow down, stop and indicate him to pass over my roof.

Chennai spotting on 22.08.2016.
FIAT PUNTO - TN - 07 - BM - 9435
At the signal for the pedestrians to cross just before Adyar Fortis Malar hospital.
Buddy have a heart. Let the pedestrians cross, at least when it is GREEN for them, coz when it is green for the cars, no one will stop to let them cross.

PS. do not mind the guy on the bike. That is his 'right of way'
