I agree. I'd much rather have a car pass me a little close than hang back until he thinks he's clear, floor it and cut me off.

I usually give a safe signal and wave a car past me.

I am just the opposite. I never give a driver a signal. I leave the decision totally to the driver as to when he/she feels it is ok to pass. That way there is no confusion.
