One Toot And You’re Oot
Banned from honking their horns, drivers in China's commercial hub of Shanghai are switching to music or voice recordings instead. Shanghai banned honking in the downtown area last month, threatening fines of up to $25 for those leaning on the horn. Not even police cars are exempt, with the use of sirens banned in all but emergencies. But some drivers are spending up to $100 for customised musical horns. One taxi driver has used a recording of a woman's voice saying, "Please mind the car, we are making a turn."
FOOTNOTE: Are we in Honk Kong?
