To be fair, regular drivers use it way too leniently too. I wish it was as loud on the inside as it is on the outside. Then maybe people would be a bit more hesitant to use it outside of emergencies.

I don't understand why cars don't have a secondary sound warning system that make no more noise than a bike bell. Use the honk when there is immediate danger and the bell when you want to gently advertise your presence. Buses have this why not cars?
