Honking the Horn

Only use your vehicle horn if you are in a vehicle and need to alert others you pose a dangerous threat to them.

Sounding your vehicle horn does not remedy a traffic jam.

Sounding your horn to communicate your road rage may create a dangerous situation for others when you cause a distraction.

Do not sound your horn in a hospital zone or during hours when people are typically sleeping unless it is an emergency.

    Hello
    I have a couple of questions.

    I am a 60 yr. old woman who picked up regularly for church by a person who lets his grandaugher do the driving thereby doing her driver’s learning training at this time. She often comes approx. 10-8 minutes earlier that the appointed time and sits in the driveway honking her horn, frequently, to notify me that she is there. When she pulls out of the drive way there is not time to put on my seat belt, nor have the other 2 80 yr. old ladies had time to do that either. What do you suggest that i do?
