Ok.

Are you in any form of bondage?

Come to Jesus for deliverance and salvation.
Jesus loves you.

He is ready to take your sins away no matter how terrible they are.

Accept him as your Lord and saviour he will give you the grace to live above sin.

Death comes to us all.


Run for your life. Run to Jesus.

In him is eternal life.

Don't discover the truth when you have already crossed over in death.

He’s saying rubbish. Car horn is meant to be used as a Warning ⚠️ Both for the car and road user.

Car horns are used indiscriminately in Europe too.
I guess his lack of knowledge about the use of car horn could still be expressed without having to shade Nigerians.

I realised car horns makes most Nigerians drive recklessly.
One day I went for a function ,my car horn was very Okay.. immediately after the function, I entered the car only to find out the horn is dead .

I thought of how to drive on the road with all the bike , Keke and other road users,I felt like parking the car,on a second thought, I zoom off.

I couldn't imagine that I drove this car without horn extra carefully back home...
I drove it again without horn for two days because my schedule was very tight to go see an electrician.

I never believed I could drive so carefully..

After the incident, I concluded that we abuse car horn in Nigeria.

Sorry I have to quote you but this is actually true. Horns are one of the things I first check on before I hit the road.

But then, here in Nigeria we like noise too. Sometimes I go crazy thinking how people get so comfortable with so many speakers from the churches, mosques, many cars with advert jingles, generator sets, car horns, and even loud speakers from bars and clubs?

Like how the f..k are we comfortable with all these?

Here, the louder the horn the better. So you can intimidate others wella.
Even some bike people connect trailer horns on their bikes. When you hear the horn, you will almost enter bush only to turn & see ordinary bike.

Very correct!. In Europe, one can stay for 6 months without hearing the bleep of a vehicle's horn. The only horn/noise one will hear is siren from ambulances on medical evacuation.
you don't honk horn to alert pedestrians or road users unaware of their environment?

The govt should order horns to be disabled in all vehicles. That will help reduce noise pollution considerably.

I disagree with you completely.. I live in Lagos and drive also.. Our reckless driving is number one in the world.. If everything is well organised then govt can now look into that..


A country where people sleep at traffic light or those that get carried away because of too much thinking and they are about to hit you, you must call their attention with something and for me in Lagos, I don't joke with the horn.. Behind some trailer you will see HORN BEFORE OVERTAKE

Reno is talking the rubbish... Why should we Unlearn the many functions of car horn we have discovered and are using it comfortably

Let us look at the mobile phone, it was initially made purposely for calls but now phone have evolved beyond anyone's imagination. Should we now unlearn this new functions and just stick making calls only??

Even in the UK car horns are been used to clear roads and to greet also. It is also use to call people's attention etc...

Is he okay? So if I get to the gate I should come down from my car to knock on the gate? Or if keke napep is driving sluggishly in front, I should wind down and call him to move over to the slow lane? Please I'm not getting what he meant ooo

I live in Europe. There is no car horn hear. Car horn is pollution. Life expectancy in Nigeria is low due to our way of living- unnecessary stress we invite. I can drive in a month without using a horn. But way back in Nigeria, horn was part of my driving

what is the difference between emergency and life threatening situations?

Life threatening situations occur frequently in Nigeria due to recklessness, unnecessary speed and impatience in driving. White people are too discipline. Without supervision, they stay on their lane even when traffic is heavy on that lane, and there is another lane to wrongly 'cut corner'. And here in Europe, police no dey here abeg. You might do something wrong in driving and go free, but when you are caught, they fine you. If you park you car in a wrong place, when you return, a ticket is placed on your car and you get a copy in your email. If you think you are stubborn, try bot no pay and you finish yourself

Exactly, even in abroad, there is no specific ways of how to use horn

In Nigeria, people do not observe driving rules (obviously because a lot of persons did not attend a driving school before hitting the road) so driving without a horn in your car is even risky.
A tricycle will stop in front of you to pick up passengers at will.
An idiot will stop his/her car in front of you discussing with someone in another car.
A car will stop in front of you because it's occupants wants to buy something from street hawkers.
Someone can be reversing towards you without using his/her mirrors.
The list is endless.
Driving for Nigeria na work and without horn you go thank God when you reach house say anything no happen to you or your car grin

Not only EUROPE, Bro.
But, in every nation that has sensible creatures.
The United States and Canada same.
Since I started living in the US, I haven't horned more than 6 times.
In Fact, my first 5 attempts took place when I newly arrived the US..... Few months on arriving the US.
That was when I realized I was the only mad humans among sensible beings.

We really need a lot of deep ROOTED CHANGE in Nigeria, the genuine change starts with you.
