Enjoyed driving on the weekend. Once you are away from the endless traffic lights ('robots' as they are called here) in the city, and the highways, then things become far more interesting.
Etiquette for driving along a single carriageway road dictates that you move over and drive half in the emergency lane when someone wishes to overtake you (therefore allowing them to overtake even when there is oncoming traffic). When they have overtaken they will flash their hazard warning lights at you a couple of times to say 'thank you'. You should then flash your headlights back at them to say 'you're welcome'. I appreciate such small gestures on a long lonely drive.
