TOOt-TOOt
For Safety
By Martha johnson
Dodge Safety Consultant

HAVE you ever been in a line
of cars at a railroad crossing
waiting for a train to pass when
a driver somewhere behind you
starts to lean on his horn?
And, while listening to the
senseless, irritating blare of the
horn, have you ever Dragged to
yourself how you never use your
horn and therefore are a great
driver?
If you have, you're just as
wrong as the smarty-pants with
the heavy hand.
Car horns have gotten a bad
name because of the railroad
crossing character, the teen-age
boy who honks loud and long TO
announce his arrival at the girl
friends house, and others who
misuse the instrument.
Because of this, many drivers
refrain from using the horn when
they should, depriving them
serves u uA AnPOAtoAhs safety
device.
When a driver absent-mind-
eddy starts to pull in front of
of you and could possibly cause
a crash, there is no better way
to alert him than a short, sharp
blast of the horn.
The horn also is invaluable
for warning youngsters playing
i'm a street of a cars approach.
Proper use of the horn is all
important. There is a sense of
urgency in a brief honk. One
long, blaring note is just SO
much noise.
Remember, don't have a mute
car. Toot-toot for safety.
