I know! They don't and they get all startled when I do it.<br /> Yup, I honk. I give them 3 seconds to go on a green light. (Which is generous, I think.) Then I'll honk.</p> <p>I'll also honk if they do something stupid.</p> <p>If they are from out of town, I might give them a little slack and won't honk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1132782 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 19:40:12 +0000 mediagirl 1132782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pastemoo: haha I totally honk. ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130752 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 22:02:38 +0000 MamaCate 1130752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I honk regularly when needed, the same kind of things you all have mentioned. Funnily, I definitely honk more than DH. Like someone will cut him off and I will tell him to honk and he ignores me ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130729 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:52:45 +0000 MrsSCB 1130729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all. In fact I'm always the one telling my H, "the horn is for dangerous situations, not to punish people who annoy you!" lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130640 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:25:28 +0000 Mrs. Taco 1130640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: Ditto.</p> <p>I also have been known to honk my husbands horn (that sounds dirty!)....I don't do it on purpose but I'll see someone about to do something stupid and just reach over and lay on the horn. It drives him crazy (rightfully so!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130610 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:18:17 +0000 MrsScallop 1130610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, I usually forget the horn even exists! It takes way too much thought to remember how to honk in emergency situations, so I really rarely do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130587 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 21:11:41 +0000 yin 1130587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only use it when completely necessary or when I'm just a tad pissed off. I don't think I'm too rude about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130296 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:56:56 +0000 MapleMoose 1130296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use mine when needed, like nudging someone who is texting and doesn't go when the light changes, someone is going to hit me, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130255 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:48:45 +0000 boots 1130255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No!! It drives me nuts when people honk for anything other than traffic violations. </p> <p>I try to only honk if someone is about to hit me, or the person in front of me isn't going at a green light. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130238 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:45:34 +0000 pastemoo 1130238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha. I thought you meant something else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130226 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:42:41 +0000 Mae 1130226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't use mine to signal someone in a house to come out. But on the road? Hell yes. I feel it is my duty to inform people of when they are being morons so that they can see the error of their ways and perhaps be less moronic in their driving in the future lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130219 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:39:23 +0000 mrsbookworm 1130219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Rarely. I think I've used it under 10 times total. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130212 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:38:22 +0000 sunny 1130212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I use it when I need it! Nobody around here honks though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130210 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:38:00 +0000 Rubies 1130210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lean on my horn like there's no tomorrow when someone cuts me off dangerously. Or, I try to give a light polite tap if it's a green light and they haven't moved. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130208 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:37:35 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1130208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only use mine if someone is about to hit me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-a-honker#post-1130197 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 19:36:11 +0000 chopsuey 1130197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG. Someone outside keeps honking their freaking horn! And it's driving me crazy.<br /> We live in a high rise, windows are closed, but it's so loud! </p> <p>I don't use mine often unless someone does something stupid on the road or they don't move when the light's green bc they're looking at their phone or distracted. </p>
