nod of recognition

Harley Riders & Jeep drivers do this. Just a little nod to acknowledge one another.

I've seen the nod of recognition many a time whilst in traffic. Pretty cool!

Nod of Acknowledgement 

Something done primarily by males who are in the same demographic.

A simple nod that a guy that gives to another guy that acknowledges the fact that they are both aware of each other and accept each other's presence. Usually done without any thought going into it, essentially a non-verbal message of acceptance.

I have no idea why we do this now that I think about it, it's like some primal need to tell each other that we aren't hostile. Maybe it has to do with alpha males or something, left over monkey shit like arm hair I guess.

*guy walks down hall by himself*
*second guy walks in opposite direction*
*look at each other and give a brief nod before passing*

nod of acknowledgement 

The nod of acknowledgement is a standard among guys as a way to let the person know that you see them, without having to resort to using words. Girls will generally not accept the nod of acknowledgement and opt for a wave of the hand and/or a smile, perhaps even accompanied by words. The nod of acknowledgement is a wordless conversation.

The only acceptable response to a nod of acknowledgement is another nod. If you speak, you have broken the point of such a gesture.

Situations in which the nod of acknowledgement may be used:
(1) Walking past a friend to class
(2) Catching a friend's eye across the room to say "hi" without verbally saying it
(3) Giving approval of a friend's actions

to fall asleep usually unintentionally.

I often nod off in class.
The speech was so boring that several people in the audience nodded off before it was finished.

nod of acknowledgement 

The all fabled "nod of acknowledgement is an interesting phenomenon. It is, put simply a slight head nod exchanged between males. While its use is documented among females, it is a rare and condition specific phenomenon. While exchanged between friends who, for whatever reason may not want to acknowledge each other verbally, in some places of the world, it is a common greeting among strangers. For example, in the southern United States, it is very common to offer a head nod to another male as you pass each other or get caught glancing at each other. However, as you travel further north, the head nod disappears among unfamiliars. While taking a stroll in NYC, you'd be hard pressed to get any unfamiliar male to return a nod of acknowledgement while simply walking down the street.

Gary and his girlfriend step into the crowded living room, the party in full swing. They notice Tim and his girlfriend. Gary and Tim exchange a nod of acknowledgement across the loud and crowded room, and then return to scanning the party. The two girlfriends do something along the lines of squealing or waving or running to each other and immediately compliment each other's shoes.

2. Dale walks down the street. He passes some guy, and they exchange a nod of acknowledgement.

3. As Lars stands in line at the hardware store scoping out the others waiting in line, he inadvertently catches the eye of Sven, two isles over. They simply exchange a nod of acknowledgement and look away.
