The “I’m Sorry” Car Horn… Could It Work?!

By | 17/02/2014

An interesting proposal I am sure you will agree!

I stumbled upon an article which suggested that cars could be fitted with a type of special ‘apology’ horn.

The article alludes to the fact that cars don’t offer a huge spectrum of emotional communication, and as use of the horn is generally thought of as a sign of aggression, and alternative sound could be used to convey an apology for an error on the road.

To read the full article, please follow the link below (be aware that it does contain one or two expletives):
