Observation, Speed & SpaceStandalone practice
A child on a bicycle near the curb ahead starts to steer toward your lane without looking back. How should you use your horn?
Blue car A approaches child cyclist B near the right curb. A short white motion arrow shows the child starting to drift toward the lane without looking back.
Correct answer: Tap the horn lightly and get ready to slow down or stop.
Why
A light tap also helps when a driver does not seem to see you or starts to move into your lane. Use the horn only to communicate; needless honking can scare or anger other road users. With children near the road, the brake is your main safety tool, so slow down as you warn.
