Not sure that applies here since one person honking won't gain them any advantage. Very possibly a tragedy of some other sort.

- Polylactic_acid 7y agoYep. "Tragedy of the commons" specifically refers to when the individuals incentives are different from the collectives incentives. This case would just be trolling. You gain nothing other than the fun of upsetting others.
- Moru 7y agoAs a pedestrian individual with an air horn you gain access to the road.
- Polylactic_acid 7y agoOnly if you are close to the road while it is currently running in the direction you want. Seems like a difficult thing to abuse.
- hailwren 7y agoDoesn't it incentivize honking when the light is green for you?
- neurostimulant 7y agoThey're already hongking all the time. If they're now only honk during green light, that's already an improvement.
