When is it legal to honk your horn?

  1. When warning of danger

  2. When crossing an intersection

  3. When you are angry

  4. When someone cuts you off

The correct answer is: When warning of danger

When warning of danger is the only lawful use of a car horn. Honking in anger or when someone cuts you off is aggressive or retaliatory honking, which can result in a traffic violation. Honking when crossing an intersection is often unnecessary and can contribute to noise pollution. So, while honking can be helpful on the road, it should only be used as a warning signal to prevent accidents and potential dangers.
