Question 5348

On this urban road, are you allowed to use the horn to warn the driver of the white vehicle that you intend to pass?

  1. Yes, except when a sign prohibits it.
  2. No, because it is prohibited.
  3. Only if the vehicle's lights are not working.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, because it is prohibited.

No. In a built-up area, you must not honk to announce that you are going to pass, and in the image you are on a city avenue. No sign is needed for this to be prohibited, and having broken lights does not make it allowed. In built-up areas, you may use the horn only to prevent a possible accident or to announce that you are responding to an emergency.
