Explanation
A sharp blast of your horn can quickly alert others to an immediate danger or potential collision. Your horn is an effective way to instantly attract the attention of other drivers, pedestrians, or cyclists, making them aware of a hazardous situation. Using your horn in critical moments, such as when another vehicle is about to collide with you, when a child is about to run into the street, or when you've lost control of your vehicle, can help prevent accidents by prompting a quick response from those around you.
