Huh, I drove in Italy for a week and a half and didn't notice excessive honking. I did notice tons and tons of tailgating.

- brabel 1y agoItaly is really 2 countries, north and south are quite distinct.
- whstl 1y agoWhat's the difference between them in terms of driving?
- PopePompus 1y agoWhere ever you are in Italy, you will be told by locals that you can't trust anyone from a town south of that place.
- widforss 1y agoEven in Lampedusa?
- Hikikomori 1y agoTry driving in Naples.
- IncreasePosts 1y agoNaples is the first place I got honked at for not cutting the person off. I was at a stop sign, making a left turn onto a main road that had a steady stream of traffic. Apparently, I was supposed to wait a few seconds and then just creep out, cutting cars off on the way, which is what I believe the driver on the main road meant when he beeped at me and gesticulated wildly while I was sitting still at the stop sign.
- jq-r 1y agoThat city was the first place where I saw a guy traffic splitting with a car. It was an ancient topolino, but my jaw dropped as he was snaking through traffic like on a moped.
- lostlogin 1y agoWhen I was there (ages ago), the driver of the bus I was on overtook on a blind corner on a road cantilevered off a cliff. They did cross themselves before doing it.
- HelloNurse 1y agoHonking is a harmless replacement for solving disputes with handguns. You probably drove in low-stress environments.
- KSteffensen 1y agoThere is a low-stress driving environment in Italy? Where's that? Milan is the only place I have ever been where reversing on the high way is a reasonable solution to missing an off-ramp.
- HelloNurse 1y agoA low amount of low stress people can be found late at night, on highways at negligible traffic hours, on the narrow and meandering country roads that everybody learns to avoid, in half-empty parking lots, and many other obvious uncommon situations.
- xarope 1y agooops, that might have been me. I kid. I only do that when completely lost trying to get out of an autogrill parking lot (!).
