How strange it is to learn about this all over the country. Google search:

 

 

History[
<https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Padiddle&action=edit&section=1>
edit]

The word Padiddle originated in the 1950s in suburban
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westchester_County> Westchester County, New
York.[ <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed> citation
needed] In the post World War II era,
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cruising_(driving)> cruising was a common
teenage dating activity, which gave rise to the game. A boy making the
discovery would kiss his date, a girl would punch her date on the arm.

Play[
<https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Padiddle&action=edit&section=2>
edit]

The objective is to be the first to spot a qualifying vehicle. The spotter
must say "Padiddle" to earn a sighting. In some groups, the spotter must
simultaneously hit the ceiling of the car or hit the window glass, and in
others, punch or kiss another passenger. The person with the highest score
at the end of the trip is the winner. In another version, the first person
to get to 3 "padiddles" is the winner and gets to make a wish.

In some variants the last member of the car to punch the ceiling loses one
article of clothing. Following this style of play, the winner is the last
person wearing clothes in the car. This is sometimes played in teams where
every member of the losing team most remove an article of clothing.

Other calls for padiddle include:

Blue balls

a car with blue headlights.

Lance Armstrong

a car with only one blue headlight.

Wee woo

an ambulance without its lights on.

Party lights

Cop cars with lights on.

Padoodle

Car with both lights off.

Qualifying vehicles must be visible through the windshield of the vehicle,
"Padiddles" seen through a side or rear-view mirror only count for half a
point. A motorcycle misidentified as a Padiddle is a foul that awards the
offender's partner a double hit or kiss.

That's why so many of the pilots in WWII were 18-21 years old.  They could
fly one-handed, or with their knees only, keeping one eye on the road.

We used to call them "pididdles" when I was a kid :-)

Was that just me? (one headlight car, in case it was just me!!)
