Summary: I customized my car horn to play three different sounds. The main sound is the "Courtesy Honk" which is used to get the attention of other drivers in a non-emergency scenario. It's two quick chirps of the horn that is not only friendly sounding, but it's not as loud as a normal car horn.

in Orlando you need 3 buttons
1) train horn
2) louder train horn
3) ground rumbling train horn
TobasFrisk 4) train horn so loud it defies all known physics and proceeds to destroy half the continent
TobasFrisk I love it bro where do you buy a train horn for your car?
TobasFrisk thank you very much sir.
TobasFrisk in Texas we only have 3 and 4.
3. window shattering loud train horn
4. a shot gun with a string tied to it.
Coded _Ragon I live in Texas it's a norm for a train horn here and lifted trucks. At this point it's more competition for who has the loudest
If you are driving in India. You only need the red button.
People here, just want that Loud horn only
WHO COULD THIS BE Do you see India Traffic
WHO COULD THIS BE India (and Pakistan) have really bad roads with very little rules (10 year olds riding bikes and stuff) so it’s complete chaos with honking every second
In India if there's too much traffic in one lane you make your own lane.
Also your tornado siren horns
I love that r2 “horn” for just snagging someone’s attention! I’ve thought about buying a musical horn for the rig I run at work just to amuse people, the idea of pulling into a jobsite with my 32T rig and waving to my coworkers with the “la cucaracha” horn blaring amuses me! 😂
You should make it play RUSH E. Nuff said.
just a big van with a buncha decorations and suitcases piled on top playing la cucureacha
Bringing out the Sarge vibes from Red vs Blue! XD
cucaracha horn i'd be thinking Lunch Time

Wow, a polite-sounding horn?
That's a great idea! Thank you, Mark!
Now I realize what I've been missing for so many years; it should be standard for all cars.
1:19 The Car is German. The Horn was meant to sound angry.
Correctly

I’d install a horn that makes the “bruh” sound effect
Bruh sound effect #2
Sam Noble bruh sound effect#3
Bruh sound effect #0
Copied
Stoopid!!
Love the idea. You should rearrange the buttons, though, from least urgent to most urgent to reduce the odds of, as others have pointed out, accidentally pressing the wrong button.
Great idea. The polite tap tap of the honk is very common here in Costa Rica. I often see it given to thank truck and heavy machinery vehicle drivers when they give you the wave that it is clear to pass them.
These are the three horns I need in NYC:
1. "Stop texting"

Great idea! As a long time motorcyclist (I used to commute 125 miles per day on SoCal freeways), I have converted my horns over to compact air horns on my bikes. They have saved my bacon many times where the original are so weak, people can't hear them, or just ignore them!
I'd just have a horn that has the Noot Noot sound effect

In my younger days I owe him 1964, Volvo P 1800. The car was stylish and was a wonderful piece of machinery to own and drive.
It came with an electric shift gear overdrive and perhaps the most brilliant aspect of this car design in the late 1950s was that it had a courtesy horn.
Ever since that experience, I have wished every car has this feature. Do you have an absolutely male that is real, and would make the world a far better place
Thank you for bringing this to the world attention through your platform, which has far more ability to convey messages to more people than I will ever have .
I’m a bit surprised car companies have not picked up on this idea. Having a courtesy horn is a wonderful thing for people with modest, modest dispositions.

Wonderful. I have always mini-beeped at the appropriate time for all the reasons you have given. I also wanted train air horns on my Ford Pinto at age 17, mostly to stop cars from backing up at me when they clearly didn't see me there. Brilliant job and thanks!
At least it's your front to their back instead of your back to their front. The idea of being rear-ended in a Pinto isn't exactly something I want to think about.

It saddens me that a simple project like this is considered hard in today’s society.
Adam Freiburger i would not call this simple. This requires a little more then slap it all together. Now if you don’t include the train horn and you don’t install the buttons, then maybe it’s easier
@@adamfreiburger7839 maybe it's just me but this seems like a very easy thing to do in a couple hours if that

Great idea Mark. I agree with you, every car should have these.
I LOVE this!! Mark R, you make the world a better, more joyful place :) I hope car manufacturers think so too....

Using that train horn for alerting other drivers would be idiotic. People don't expect that on the roads and instead of grabbing their attention, it would most likely spook them and possibly cause an accident.
@@DeltaInsanity it's a joke. Not like someone is actually gonna use a train horn to alert other people while in traffic. I mean, I agree with you, but still. It's a joke dude. No need for the explanation of why a train horn is an idiotic way to get people's attention.

I can't say that you're wrong.
as a musician, i thought it would be 3 different horns that are pitched at C, E, and G so in traffic no matter what you press, the car horns will always harmonize.

You're so me ❤🥹🤌 well done, amazing thinking. I'm doing this in my car too. Thanks for inspiration

Why hasn't this been in cars for decades? What an awesome idea.
The funny thing is, some cars DID used to have something like this- except it was a set of 'town' and 'country' horns instead. One for use in, well, towns, where everyone's fairly close together, and a louder one for use in more open areas where everyone's much further apart.
I don't know about the rest of Europe, but in Denmark it's only legal to use a "normal" horn
In most countries, it's only legal to use the horn as a safety warning (Eg. warning you're coming around a blind corner, or to prevent a collision), so "please move, the light is green" or "thanks" aren't legal uses of the horn, just as how cars aren't supposed to have random flashing lights. The intention of the law in the US also makes this type of horn illegal, but the law is poorly worded, so it's technically only illegal to use these horns on a highway.
the real question is: why don't i see this in cars in 2019
Nice custom horn, my Tesla has something like that too.
I wish every car had a small sign in the back window that says "Thank you" or "Sorry" at the press of a button.
Use hazard for 2 seconds, it is common in here.

It's just for the video probably
The Chevy Volt has a quick chirp horn feature to warn pedestrians, since in EV mode, there's no engine noise.
I didnt know that
Can confirm...Volt owner here
One more reason for me to buy a Volt
My electric van has too. Automatically activated when under 30km/h.
But it's kind of white noise, a low bubbling like an aquarium.
Not bad as a reminder that something is approaching, but not much.
I'm thinking about a better loop sound for busy area (John Deacon's bass in Queen/Bowie "under pressure" is my ideal) and a super-nice honk as a "Sorry, would you mind?“
The super blaster horn is, well, interesting...
@Ken Norcott MAYBE IF PEOPLE LEARNED HOW TO DRIVE!! Lol jk
I think everyone should have that like the rtd2 honk and the train honk really useful
I would love to get a setup like this! My 4runner horn is ok, but a nice little chirp or 2 would be amazing! 😎

Love it. All passenger vehicles and main battle tanks should have this.
Reminds me of when I was driving an older Jetta, and tapping the steering wheel to the music. The vibrations caused the horn button wire to come off the button and lay directly on the steering column. Horn honked continuously until I peeled open the steering wheel and re-set the wires.
Hmm... Let me place the super loud train horn right between the 2 nice ones, that won't lead to any accidental button pushes...
