In which of the following situations should you sound your horn?

Correct answer

  • If you see a blind pedestrian about to cross the roadway
  • If you see a deer on the roadway
  • To greet a friend

Explanation

Sound your horn whenever you need to warn of immediate danger. If you see a deer or some other animal on or near the roadway and you think you have time to avoid hitting it, reduce your speed, tap your brakes to flash your brake lights to warn other drivers, and sound your horn. However, sounding your horn can startle a blind pedestrian unnecessarily.
