In this area, something new has started. Car drivers are giving of bin collection crews , road worker, delivery vans
Utility repair crews and others a sound of the horn or a flash of lights and then giving a thumbs up

Here's mine...

Believe it or not, our 911 call volume is actually DOWN due to covid-19. People want to avoid hospitals if at all possible due to the possible exposure. The Caveat to what might otherwise be considered a boon is that while overall call volume is down, the acuity level of calls is UP. Since noone wants to go to a hospital right now, by the time EMS is actually called, the situation is pretty bad.
Surely a sign of the times.

I’ve said several times to my daughter and the dogs - stop that we are not going to the ER right now!

More a case of sad, than guilty. I hope that someone is archiving these images for history, by the time our g kids grow up and have kids they will not believe how bad it was.

How you end a car run in the times of social distancing...

Yes. The photos do depict the times we are living now.
