From Mr. Manners on polite driving:

"Be kind to others on the road, including other drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, and tollbooth attendants. Try to give others road space, let people in when merging, and wave to say thanks when someone does something nice for you. Indicate your intentions on the road with turn signals and the like, and pay attention to the lane you are in. On the highway, pass on the left, and stay to the right if other cars are traveling faster than you. When you approach a slow merge, let the cars mix in like a shuffled deck of cards: a car from one lane followed by a car from the other lane. If traffic is slow on an exit ramp, it is OK to merge as long as you are not crossing a solid line, but try not to cut everyone else off at the last moment."

On single lane roads I move to the shoulder to allow faster traffic to pass. Seldom do they wave : (
