Hand signals from car

I observed a learner driver being shown hand signals. The instructor
stuck his hand through the window and rotated it, then rotated it the

I wasn't taught it in my lessons in 1997, and I doubt many drivers would
know what it meant. At least one of them looked like he was beckoning
to the car behind to pull round him.
That's very interesting that you broach this subject. As a well-versed
driver of over 50 years experience, I remember well the motorist hand
signals, which were of more use to cyclists than folks in autos.
Regardless of that, I still frequently use those hand signals whilst
driving my most expensive convertible automobile. Most of which involve
the use of my middle finger.
