Put me down as well. May miss it due to fatigue or lack of sobriety, however... we'll see how the day goes.

I used to think this was standard procedure, then I really pissed a guy off once by doing this when he hadn't heard of it . Mirrors down & high beams on!!!

Do it for the safety... do it for the children
I think I remember that, I was following billman and you were behind me. Wasn't pissed off but what a great trick now I use it all the time
