[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve honked at dangerous non-lighted crosswalks (there’s one near my house) to warn other cars that there was a pedestrian crossing at that moment. [/quote] I think a lot of people hear honking and feel pressure to go. This sounds really dangerous.[/quote] Not at all. I've been a pedestrian for most of my life, and I never feel pressure to go when I hear a honk! On the contrary, I look around and increase my alertness to see what the problem is and how I can stay safe. The immense majority of drivers, in every US, European and Asian cities I've been to, do not honk at pedestrians, but at each other, so I know the honks are not addressed to me. [/quote] Not the pedestrian the other drivers who would hit the pedestrian! [/quote]
