Another interesting two handed "wave" is the VW sign, again
not recomended while driving. I live in downtown Toronto, a
city with BIG traffic issues, I walk a lot of places.

When I see a van stopped at a light or something while I'm
walking I give them the VW sign. Basicly you make each hand
into a "V" peace sign and overlay them so that it looks like
a VW.

Thanks,
Chris
