Practice question

When are you allowed to use your vehicle's horn?

  1. To alert other drivers of your presence.
  2. To express frustration or anger.
  3. To greet a friend or acquaintance.
  4. Only in emergencies to avoid a collision.

Answer: D — Only in emergencies to avoid a collision.

Using your car's horn to express frustration or anger, greet a friend, or simply to make noise is not considered appropriate use of the horn. It can be distracting and potentially cause confusion or annoyance to other drivers on the road. The horn should only be used in emergency situations, such as alerting another driver of a potential collision, to ensure the safety of yourself and others.
