I've often used a similar technique driving, but it has backfired. When someone gets angry, flips me off, etc. I will usually wave exuberantly, with a huge smile. Unfortunately making an angry driver angrier gets scary quick.

Once in a while, I catch myself making some kind of mistake on the road that angers another driver.
I really wish there was some kind of international, "Sorry, my bad!" gesture. If there is one, I'm unaware of what it is.
