The Horn

ha no not annoying for me , cause i blow the heck out of my horn, i dont mind doing it for kids although its great when the parents dont know and a lay on the horn and they are un aware

 

In CA, some cities will nail you with a noise violation citation, and that goes for engine brakes as well.

 

I'll blow the air horn for kids, adults, not so much, unless she's cute. Sometimes when I go by kids on a secondary road who pump me to blow the horn I'll give them a couple of toots on the electric horn, which sounds like a Honda.

 

I usually don't blow the horn because it scares the poop out of the drivers around me. The kids in the car pumping their arm are expecting the noise, nobody else is and blasting them can be dangerous. I've hit the horn for the kids and seen the driver (their parent?) nearly jump out of the car.

 

I don't like to blow the horn unless there's not much traffic around. It tends to startle people. Usually I just wave at the kids. Most are happy just to be aknowledged.

 

I will blow it.. most of these people need to be scared a little bit anyways.. Get them out of thier zombie state of driving, sure wakes them up for a few... I look at it this way, you get scared of a horn then most likely you wasn't paying attention in the first place

 

I always blow the horn when kids signal.Most of the time when everybody else wants me to and sometimesjust for the hell of it.Told my kids to use another "signal" for drivers who don`t blow the horn for them.

 

You teaching your kids to make rude gestures???!!!

Shame on you !!!

 

I almost always blow my horn for the kids when they signal me. I have two children, ages 8 and 9. I know they love it when other truckers blow their horns for them. I do not blow my horn for another adult though.
