People I wave at:
Other drivers (on trains and platforms)
Kids waving from bridges, but only when they are clearly to young to be troublemakers.
People I sound the horn at (excluding when I am required to by the rules):
The kids mentioned above,
People standing too close to the platform edge,
People on busy platforms as I pass through stations at speed.
People I do NOT wave/sound the horn at:
Spotters (except in exceptional circumstances),
People who randomly wave at me on platforms, such as drunk youths late at night,
Police (why they seem to think we're obliged to acknowledge them is beyond me).
That just about covers my strict rules regarding who you wave/sound the horn at. Hope that helps.
