Honking at someone when the light turns green is no longer rude because he is probably on his phone

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If said this for years, cars need a secondary polite horn
What about a third, really aggressive horn that's just a train horn?
No, you just play thomas the tank engine theme
Sadly horn volume is regulated with the intention of preventing things like loud air horns from being used on personal vehicles.
Install a compressor, tank, and train horn all off instragram
I saw some video of an infuriatingly positive and giggly guy mod his horn this way. To add insult to injury iirc (which is about 50/50 after so many years) he used an arduino to do it. Video got a gazillion likes and many supporting comments. It unexpectadly became the last straw before deleting my facebook account.
I know… I’m no fun.
