One of our first forum meet ups at Loveday 4wd park in South Australia many many moons ago!
It was a mud fest and my radiator fell apart and alternator died.
Had a 10 hour drive back home, no charge to battery, turned everything off, car overheating and the last leg of the trip I had 4 volts on the battery.
This reminded me of the signals I was doing to people behind me, wrong I know but I had minimal options and just wanted to get home.
Sounds familiar, my first visit to Loveday my radiator blocked up and alternator stopped working.
I pulled my alternator apart while I was there and got it working again, was just mud in the brushes.
Got as much mud out of the radiator as I could while there and pulled it out to clean it properly at home.
Learnt my lesson that week, never play in Loveday mud.
Hehehe... the old school hand signals eh... they missed the 7th and most important tho.
Still legal and still a legal requirement for older vehicles without lights or newer with inoperative lights and you won't get booked for giving them.
Indeed you can be booked if you don't.
Well, at least thats still the law in WA, SA and QLD AFAIK, dunno about other states
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
