I rarely use the horn on my bikes.

 

I just ride defensively and anticipate what the idiotic drivers are going to do.

 

You could put on a ship's fog horn with a 20 mile audio range... if that idiot is going to swerve into your path.. you will still be going down with horns at full blast. At least alot of other road users will take notice and witness the accident for you.

 

Mebbe many times they will swerve back when you blast your horn.. all it takes is the one time that they don't... you're down for the count. So it is always safer to ride defensively.

 

What I need is a couple of Sparrow AIM-7 missiles on the bike just to blow those idiotic drivers who change lanes without checking their blind spots right off the surface of this planet. :angel:

 

Loud horns does not necessarily mean right of way, especially against a car with windows wound up, music blasting and a hard of hearing driver.

 

Ride safe everyone.

Louds horns might save your life someday.

 

 

Imagine that a car suddenly cut into your lane without checking, and you sound your horn. If your horn was as loud as a truck's, the immediate reaction of the car is to swerve to avoid being hit by the truck. It's an instinct.

 

 

Of course they will feel cheated that there is no truck but a tiny motorcycle, still your life is saved.

 

 

Exactly...After stopping, i was happily laughing with my gf about the reaction of the car..
