I love the idea that driverless cars might lower the amount of honking by reducing the number of people who can respond to a honk


Someday I'm going to run for mayor of New York City to institute exactly one policy change. I'll add horn detectors to all traffic lights, and every time it hears a honk, it will make the light stay red for an additional 10 seconds.

Yes, I know that I will be brutally murdered on my second day in office.


I'd give it a matter of hours before the city is inundated with trolls walking and biking around with portable air horns.


You've got my vote.
