Do you honk your horn at skydivers?

Recommended Posts

This happens to me all the time. I'm traveling somewhere an I get someone honking at me. I look over and get an excited thumbs up or something to that effect.

I do have a couple of stickers on the back of my work van. It just takes me a minute to figure out what "that idiot" is honking about.

Maybe that's what I need to do. But I'm sure most of them are tandems on their way home. I was on my way home from NC one week and 6 people in a SUV were honking at me, smiling and waving, they were all over the road, it still took me a minute.

Driving from France to Spain this summer, we passed a car that had a skydiving sticker on it. The guy caught me checking him out! :ph34r: I've wondered if it was someone who might have known me from here.

I nearly run them off the street. If they stop, I take pictures of them for momentos. Just ask Sunshine.

I'm going to start giving back. Every time I see a sticker on a car I'm going to act like the biggest fool I can. Beep, Wave, thumbs up, flash my moobs. B|



That's the spirit. Carry a can of silly string. You can spray them as you pass. If you run out, use Twinkies instead. It's amazing what a Twinkie will do to a windshield at 70 mph.

I tend to give the pull signal... skydivers will get it, most tandems will not.. beyond that I dont make any real effort to catch up/pass... I'm generally out of state in rental cars when I notice them most

I always try to drive whenever possible. Flying scares the crap out of me. When they lock that door and I can't see what they are doing or hear warning buzzers. I've been on a few Regional Jet flyovers. " Umm yeah, we are going to fly over and have the tower take a look..."

I spend a lot of time out of town, mostly in my work van.

Um, no. I only went as far as Auburn Hills tonight. I'm working in Clarkston this weekend. The person was in a SUV, I couldn't tell what it was (American made, Chevy or Ford) and I was where 75 turns left (From the left, right hand lane) in Detroit.

I don't even think my company has locations in Flint.

And we must have talked some stranger into taking it for us too, although I don't remember talking to anyone stranger than us that day...
