"Horns are the stupidest thing ever. They have absolutely no positive value." You must not drive. I can't imagine any other way to come to this conclusion.

- lkbm 4y agoThey drive in a different place than you do. I don't drive a lot, but at least a couple times in recent memory when I've signaled/started to merge only to realize there was a car there. They didn't honk. Maybe if I hadn't noticed in time they would have, but I suspect they were focused on preparing to brake or swerve. It definitely might be safer if we had a honkier culture. When you're urgently trying to avoid a collision, you won't have the mindfulness to remember the tools you never use. For many of us, that means we stick with the ones we're used to: we brake and/or steer. The most frequent use of the car horn here seems to be the light has turned green and the driver in front of you hasn't noticed. I'll bet sizable percentage of local drivers haven't used their horn in a year.
