You do not limit your comparison to only UK. You may find out the way vehicle horn or some other piece of technology is used or applied differs from country to country. The idea of taking the way things are done in Nigeria as the negative way is something else. Take the way gun is abused in America as an example, no country will see it as the civilized way to go. Another example is wedding practice in India compared to Nigeria. It is not bad to try to refine certain societal practice here in Nigeria but not from the mindset that everything foreign is always the right way. |

In my own opinion I felt exactly the same way until I travelled out of Nigeria,it was not until then I noticed the indiscriminate use of horns by Nigerians because u hardly hear horns blaring all about in any sane country out there,however their roads are so planned that with everything from streetlights and pedestrian crossing that u might not need to horn for any reason except in an emergency for real,plus less cars on the streets where metros are available,plus Nigerians are generally almost always in a rush for everything I didn’t realize that as well until I travelled. |

Delphi: True! I've been in Houston for 3 months now and I have not heard a car horn once!! But then again the environment is different. Here people driving are sane and mostly far better educated than most drivers in Nigeria. Also there are no street traders and hawkers, roads are better marked and people stay in their lanes and trafficate properly, and the driving density is not as high. Also before you get your license you do online course and then go take your test. And it is made clear that driving on the road is not a right, but a privilege to be taken seriously for the safety of yourself and others. |

Okoyedavid3: Very shallow mind you are. He didn't say he want to learn it in university, but he observed it while in university in UK. Comprehension eludes many of us in Nigeria. That's why we fail exams very easily cos we actually can't comprehend what the question is really asking. |

broswilli: That is only necessary in Nigeria because we do not drive properly. Why would you change lanes without using your side mirror. Using horn is a symptom of bad driving. |

Some people here uses car horn to get the car in front of you moving - some drivers stop at traffic red light, start texting and forget when the light turns green...just one "pom" off they go |

Those who don't have cars or don't drive in Nigeria will come here to support Reno. They do horn in the USA but not like the way in Nigeria. It's different climes. You don't expect me to sit with folded hands when Danfo is parked in my front picking up passengers. With the amount of street trading, hawkers and reckless crossing of the roads by pedestrians, it is imperative you use ur horn sometimes for driving ease |

Why do we always want to emulates what other people do; can't we develop our our own way of doing things differently so that other people will emulate us? |

Nonsense. People horn to get attention of others in the US and Europe too. Heck. During last year's presidential campaign, Obama campaigned in Georgia and they were using car horns to reply back to him. There was even one church service video that trended online where people were using car horns to respond to the preacher.

macrodata: That's how it is in sane environment. From Norway to Sweden to Belgium (even the UK partially) things are very orderly so someone accustomed with the lifestyle over there may find what's happening every other place not sane as queer. 1 Like |
