Honking

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

When is it appropriate to honk your horn when you're in your car? When is it not?

DISCUSS!!

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

sometimes I honk at people just for the hell of it.   I especially love driving by golf courses & honking during someones back-swing.

this is IMO an unacceptable use of the honk

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

People who honk the second the light turns green, when were going to start moving at 2 seconds

this is a gray area for me. if were in traffic, you dont get 2 seconds before i honk. if im not in a hurry, ill give you 2-3 seconds to go before i honk.

Honking is such a weird word imo

Honking is a very effective way to get someone's attention. I recommend honking your automobile's horn every three seconds while your vehicle is in use make pedestrians and other motorists aware of your location and ensure the safety of yourself and others.

ah, but then you have the classic "if a car honks on an empty highway but no other motorists or pedestrians hear it, did you really honk?" conundrum.

Right time: To make a driver aware of a hazardous situation or to redirect the attention of a driver who is not paying attention.

Wrong time: To express your anger.  Go home and complain to your wife, but don't distract other drivers.

Whenever a driver is being a dumbass, cuts you off, going too slow, etc. I honk as long as I can and drive really fast by them. There's a lot of dumb rough ridin' people out there and I need them to know it.

I don't think I've ever used my car's horn for its intended purpose

excessively long bleats of a horn can lead to oil in the gas tank.

Lot of no-timers think right times are wrong times and I have to explain but it usually leads me to yell.

GTFO of my way, Spracs!

A few weeks back someone cut me off, I honked. I wasn't satisfied with the honk so I followed them home. Everyday after work I would camp outside their home for 2-3 hours. Just looking at the house, seething. But then I would go home because it was getting pretty late.

Hey everyone, pay attention to me while I express my anger by blasting my horn for 10 seconds and driving aggressively.  Come check out how automotively emotive I am, guys!

  Drive faster, dumbass! 

[The1BigWillie]

I love it when I'm in a parking lot or intersection and someone honks and then someone else honks and then another and then we all realize we are all just being goofballs and before you know it 20 people are honking and laughing and waiving and the first guy who honked (prolly Wacky) is super embarrassed or oblivious.
