It seems these incidences are escalating. There are so many crazies out there and when they get in a car, they feel power. They are often more of a danger on the road than your perceived infraction that set them off.
JUst the other day I was in the motorhome at an intersecton. I was in the "straight ahead" lane. Next to me was the turn lane. I was watching the lights and when the turn arrow lit up green, there was instantly a horn sound from behind the first car in the turn lane. The driver in that first car barely had time to go from the brake to the accelerator. Apparently #2 in line was just sitting there with baited breath waiting for the light to change and seconds must have been precious for him.
I'm not opposed to a "tap" of the horn if needed, but this person just laid on the horn. I don't mind if the car behind me "reminds" me the light has turned green, but laying on the horn scared us all.
