I’d…I would support this. Honking serves little purpose.

I was behind someone when the light turned green and while the person in front of them took off, they didn’t. No amount of honking had any effect. The light turned red and they suddenly awoke from their coma and ran it.

Some lady was paying zero attention and backed out her parking spot.. almost directly into me. Thankfully she was at least awake even if she was mostly oblivious. The horn got her to stop lol

They waited to shaft you because you honked at them. Spiting you was worth the ticket to them.
