mystes posted:I guess good for you that you can think that way but if someone honks at me I'm probably going to be angry for the rest of the day skating is my commute and errand running, there are very few days in the month that I dont do at least 5 miles and most weeks am averaging somewhere around 70-80mi; i’d never stop being angry (which would lead to more skating to try to temper that temper and a vicious cycle)

What if you had speakers on the outside of your car hooked up to a mic on your steering wheel so you can tell people what you mean

corona familiar posted:there should be a quiet honk and a loud honk, where the loud honk is piped into the car at the same volume as it is outside what if horns were only audible inside the car? how long would it take drivers to figure it out?

evil_bunnY posted:LOL. If a driver honks at me they'll be angry for the rest of the day. Last time it happened I put the bike in the middle of the lane and went up to them to have a chat. They were *SO* seething. Recently somebody honked a ton at me and gestured that I should get on the sidewalk once when they were stuck in an intersection because of stopped traffic behind me. I considered doing something like this but didn't want to die that day.

I had a cop tell me to bike on the sidewalk because "it's safer". I don't know if he was trying to trick me into doing a crime so he could arrest me or if he just had zero understanding of traffic laws.

cars should be required by law to blare the loudest drum and bass music through the shittiest rattliest subwoofers imaginable we'd have car free streets within the month Clark Nova posted:what if horns were only audible inside the car? how long would it take drivers to figure it out? never, same way people never actually check to see if their lights are working

in Japan they have trucks that play a spoken announcement out loud while they're stopped. I don't understand what it means but I assume it's some kind of warning or apology about a stopped truck. since we import their trucks here, occasionally you get to hear the same thing, but it's still Japanese so nobody understands it and then, I assume some enterprising people have managed to hack these things, because the sound has changed into a woman moaning

I wish people would import those tiny trucks that are actually made for carrying cargo and not the huge useless Ford trucks that seem to only be used to take up space.
