Honking at someone when the light turns green is no longer rude because he is probably on his phone

Dependent on the length of the horn blast, however
The only polite way is to lay on the horn non-stop while following them to their destination (so they know you're there), when they stop, get out, approach them as quickly as possible (to be respectful of their time) to thank them for going
This is generally accepted in any situation and is loved by many drivers.
Yup. A quick tap of the horn or double tap is fine. Even a 1 second blast. Once we get into 2 seconds blast territory, it transitions to rude, with 3+ seconds going up linearly on the deranged jackass scale
It's the difference of saying hey and HHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYY! @#$@!#$!@@$@#$!
If said this for years, cars need a secondary polite horn
What about a third, really aggressive horn that's just a train horn?
No, you just play thomas the tank engine theme
Install a compressor, tank, and train horn all off instragram
Sadly horn volume is regulated with the intention of preventing things like loud air horns from being used on personal vehicles.
I saw some video of an infuriatingly positive and giggly guy mod his horn this way. To add insult to injury iirc (which is about 50/50 after so many years) he used an arduino to do it. Video got a gazillion likes and many supporting comments. It unexpectadly became the last straw before deleting my facebook account.
I know… I’m no fun.
15 times in a short burst
A solid 10 second blast and a flash of your gun to let em know no funny business.
Ya know, sane stuff
