For example, I'm a white Jewish guy but I've adopted the Japanese practice of keeping dedicated house slippers at the front door.

I've always used high beams as a thank you/I'm letting you pass/bro, your headlights are off, depending on the context.

Here in Germany it's common to quickly flash your hazards when you're on the highway and enter a traffic jam to signal the person behind you "Watch out, I'm slowing down and won't accelerate again"
