So simply waving at shoulder length as if to say, "Getaway" was never illegal or considered an invalid signal. That is why it matters what the state you work in says or suggests and then move forward with that ruling. As usually things that start at other levels do not always come down to the other levels and people conflate the two issues.

"Common Sense" suggests you actually know where you are (what State, operating under which Rules Code and what accepted practices are) that will help guide you to the appropriate conclusions.
