penus de milo posted:this one might be a social issue, idk the official books put out by the DMV where i learned to drive say you need to use the horn basically any time. before moving from a stop at a stop sign, before backing out of a space, really any time that you want to indicate that youre about to do something yet the reality is using your car horn is considered the equivalent of spitting in another drivers face

just imagine it, though imagine ringing a bell, a bell that you carry solely for this purpose, to tell people to get out of your way because you need to keep running now imagine what kind of person would actually do this

tbh on bikes it's one thing, you're moving much faster than walkers and slower than cars and you take up a lot of space. it's good that people are aware of you because it's in everyone's best interest to keep you moving and out of their way as a runner you're just an rear end
