Horn preference?

wish they would put it next to the gas and brake pedals because if im not using either one of those, i would like to step on the air horn

 

Best place to mount a real loud horn is pointed in the blind spot, a little toot to get somebodies attention is needed sometimes.

 

I would prefer to have all horns hooked to the city button in the middle of the wheel.

The harder you push the louder it blares.

I have only been driving 8 months and had my first Really close call at killing someone the other day.

I did not have the time to reach for the air horn lanyard up by the dash on my Western Star.

just time to instinctually hit the horn in the middle of the wheel while I grabbed the center spokes and Swerved 3 different directions in less than 2 seconds.

I since than have lengthen the air horn land yard but even with that on there reaching for the lanyard would have cost me precious time.

 

Somewhere along the line the turn signal changed from meaning “I’m getting ready to go that way” to “please hit the gas and get in my blind spot”

 

i prefer a MLRS rocket launcher button on the steering wheel...

 

They used to have blades on the wheels on the chariots of olden age that would slice and dice up the ones they had on the sides.

 

I learned a long time ago, the horn is a poor substitute for speed and braking. I was also schooled that a pedestrian on the road, can be scared right into the road by a loud horn. Lessons that have stayed with me to this day. Try telling a judge that you sounded your horn, and that it was the loud one, but that #### car (school bus, pedestrian or a kid on a bicycle) pulled right in front of you, and you T-boned it. Guilty as charged!

 

My father used to tell me before you reach for that horn make sure you have took your foot off the throttle and have the brake pedal covered. It's too bad it seems most drivers today do that the other way around.
