PIC: A brilliant guide on how Irish drivers salute each other in the country

Joe Harrington

City slicker won’t understand.

An Instagram post by cyrilhelnwein is being shared all over Irish people’s interwebs today.

Cyril has done something vital by explaining the difference between four commonly-used salutes given by drivers in the country.

“Made a little meme to illustrate Irish countryside road etiquette. [It] may be applied in Dublin too, but don’t expect the greeting to be returned.”

If you’re from the country, you’ll recognise every single one of them.

Well done, Cyril.
