Only signaling with one arm? What is this heresy? /s

Here it's right arm horizontal, for going right, like "zooming grandma" in the painting. Left arm horizontal for going left. Left arm up, for stopping. Both legs at 45 degrees for going through puddles. And both arms horizontal, for pretending to be an airplane. Please note, it's not advised to fly through puddles.
