Beep Beep, Toot Toot. Should I ever run for office, my first legislation will be to draft a bill making it mandatory for car manufacturers to make all cars with horns that have a maximum 500 ‘beeps’. After that, it’s $1.00 per beep if you want more. That’s right, 500 beeps – that’s all you get. Here’s why …
Somehow, in our modern society, the car horn has become less a way of communicating a dangerous situation and more a way of communicating “OUTTA MY WAY!” It is a loud and mostly unnecessary sound that plagues those of us who choose to live in urban areas. Light changes. Horn beeps. Light change. Horn beeps. No pause to allow the person to move the foot from brake to gas – just BEEP!
Rather than honking off all those around you, how about counting to 3? When the light changes, just count to 3. I’ll bet we all still get where we’re going with a lot less noise.
Toot toot!
