Just wondering out loud -- what if we're at a red light -- you in front of me, I'm in a convertable, and you have a loud, obnoxious bike. Is it ok if I lean on the horn right behind you for the duration of that 2-minute stoplight? After all, noise is good, and more noise is heaven.
Or, as in my neighborhood, a very loud biker goes up and down the street, disrupting everyone. Is it ok for me to go by his house and lean on my very loud car horn? Would anyone have a problem with that? BTW, I LOVE the sound of my car horn, although I know most people do not.
