Birds of a feather flock together

People tend to associate in groups, and motorists are no exception. In addition to the traditional division into the brand and model, there are plenty of clubs. Attentiveness on the road never hurts, and if to get accustomed to some machines, you can learn about their hosts something interesting. For someone to label with Japanese characters will not say anything. But who knows, maybe close to a traffic jam is like-minded people with whom you walk into a go-kart club, or who just loves ice fishing? One of the most common signs for "their" is the Ribbon, which is usually tied to the car antenna. First place in popularity has appeared in the 2005 "St. George's Ribbon." For several years, provided free of charge within the traditional action dedicated to the Day of Victory in Great Patriotic War. The action takes place every year from April 24 to May 12, these days the streets of the country, everyone can get a black and orange stripes. In the U.S., is an analog - a yellow ribbon with the words "support our troops" are hung up on cars, Americans in support of troops in Iraq. The symbol of the joint action of GAI and young motorists became black and white ribbon. In 2007, conducted road safety week under the slogan "I choose to safety on the roads." The event was held only once during this time in places where cars and young people were given about 300 thousand ribbons. Head of Traffic Police Victor Kiryanov said that black and white patches to symbolize solidarity in compliance with traffic regulations and responsible behavior on the roads. After a sensational car accident that killed the governor of the Altai Territory Mikhail Evdokimov, was created by one movement of motorists. On the day of appeal they have made in defense of the accused Oleg Shcherbinsky, who threatened to 4 years of the colony. Support action was held in 2006 in several cities in Russia, and later white patches on the antennae were hung in protest against the flashers and the rudeness of cars with "thieves" numbers. Fans skydiving can find like-minded people in the so-called "tyavochkam. This tape is made of thick fabric that can withstand the tensile strength of up to 100 kg, such jumpers usually tighten valves parachute backpack. This identification mark can be seen attached to the rear view mirror or backpack. Colours "tyavochek" very diverse. A similar value has a "pin" - zachekovka parachute backpack, with which it opens. In winter, the Russian bikers are forced either to change to four-wheel drive or walk. To get to know each other, they lay under the rear window of a motorcycle helmet or stick labels like "Today I have two extra wheels. Often on a motorcycle or on the clothes of his rider can see the motto «Outlaw biker» or "1%". This expression appeared in the distant 1947, when California buyanyaschimi bikers were literally caught two cities - Hollister and Riverside. National Motorcycle Association has responded to these acts of hooliganism statement that 99% of motorcyclists are law-abiding. Silhouette of a fish is a symbol of the confession of the Christian faith. Fish - a symbol of Jesus Christ, translated into Greek - «ichthys». For washed our sins Jesus offered his blood shed on the cross. Monogram «IXThYS» stands for both: I - Jesus, X - Christ, Th (Theou) - God, Y (Yios) - Son, S (Soter) - Savior. The name means "Jesus Christ - the Son of God, Savior." In response, Christian supporters of Darwin's theory paint on the fish up. In Spain, there is separation of the Spaniards and Catalans. First glued to the machine bulls, and the second - donkeys. These animals are symbols of Spain and Catalonia, respectively. It is known that the Catalans are striving for independence, and sometimes just for fun portray these animals in unnatural comical poses. Fans of fast driving and racing cars ring of glue on the Nurburgring. In Moscow there is an analogue of this character - the trail in Myachkovo. A huge number of street-racing fan clubs develop their own labels, and "advertise" their get-together on the road. Labels such as "Schumacher", "Satellite of hell", "flight attendant crew is required" and have cheap thing of the past. Pokatushek fans on the road can be easily identified by labels like "Valdai 2008", "Fall Call", etc., and some dzhipery strapped to a tow toy bucket. This is not a complete list of secret signs for motorists. On every hobby you can tell others, and boaters will stick their oars and waves, lovers of equestrian sports - horse silhouettes and horseshoes, a myriad of options. The main thing is that the huge crowd saw him, "his" and a greeting to blink or emergency gang waved.
