We already noticed that flashing your lights does not mean, it is safe to come. In stead it means 'I am doing something stupid so get out of my way'. Indicating right means 'do not overtake', indicating left means, 'it is safe to overtake' or 'I might turn right at some point'. Small but potential fatal differences. But there was more, luckily someone explained it to us.
There are many police checks on the roads (which we do not have to fear with CD plates :)).
To warn oncoming traffic you make a wave sign with your hand, indicating police is close. A turning finger pointing upwards means they are up the next hill, turning finger downwards means they are in the next valley. I forgot the sign for 'no police in sight'. If you want to know the situation from oncoming traffic, you flash your lights, they will respond with one of the signs, or in our case look blank and confused.
