I was trying to put air in my tires in the freezing cold and this guy pulls up next to me and just starts honking.

  I was once cussing at a stop and go driver, only for the driver to get out and point at her throat. She was choking on her toast. We got it cleared and she was okay.

  Assholes seem to be more common than medical emergencies though.

    Yeah I was that asshole a couple months ago. This van driver parked diagonally across my street, blocking traffic in both directions (note there was plenty of room since most people park in driveways, he was just lazy). He just got out and walked away, so I was pissed, leaning on my horn…… but he was a driver for the disabled and I had to watch him help an elderly person across the lawn to the van while I was honking.

    I feel bad if the elderly person thought I was honking at her, but the asshole driver has never blocked the entire street again so maybe my behavior is vindicated

      That must have been horrible, watching him slowly and deliberately move the old person across the yard, honking the whole time

  He just saw someone with a mask and a bloody axe creep into the back seat of your car.

  My Favorite human phenomena is that most drivers will use the horn when their safety could have been secured by applying the brakes

    Well if someone causes a dangerous situation, why not both?

      There are a lot of Main Characters around that deeply resent any impediment to their plans.

  50% chance it’s just an asshole

  50% chance they didn’t see you were putting air and wanted your car out of the way.
