It may be the glass of bubbly but I'm going to chime in from another angle. I whinge relentlessly about errant motorists but the truth is that I see a heck of a lot more polite, courteous behaviour than I see of the impatient and ignorant. And when I feel it's warranted, I'll give a friendly wave if someone has waited to ensure my safety, because I really appreciate the respect.
