Apropos of nothing, I flew into DFW last week and stayed in Fort Worth for several days. Very impressed with that City. I was surprised. I don’t know why.
Actually the horn of your vehicle is to tell people look I am here. Despite how many people use it, it is not a device to use for a complaint. Inuring people to the sound of a horn by using it to complain makes everyone less safe.
You would not believe the politically correct bull shit that
I have had to put up with from my employer for the past 22 years.
I’m counting down to retirement now, just 23 more months to go.
I am going to be one ornery old sum-bitch as it comes to an end.

Exactly, there is no reason for a driver to have to wait 12 minutes to leave the DFW Airport.
Good for you. Honking always speeds things up. The more you honk, the faster it goes! Go Honkies!
Whatever Mrs. Dean Ahmed.
lol. You really are in a bad mood.
I do not disagree with your complaint. I just pointed out that the reason to have a horn is to warn someone of impending danger not to complain that one is in a long slow line.
Obviously this limo needs BIGGER AIR HORNS!
Hey! That’s racist!
It works both ways.

When I commuted to work by car, it took an hour and 20 minutes to get there in the morning traffic, a real bad commute most days, until I started honking every chance I had and then noticed an improvement - now it only took 80 minutes!
I don’t know what idiot designed the new toll lanes. You can barely get a compact car through there. But at least the airport isn’t as corrupt as DART.
And they are completely random as to which lanes are tolltag only, which are mixed, and they always throw open one or two non-tolltag lanes just to mess everyone up, with small signage that can’t be read until you are too close to move over more than about one lane.
And I didn’t think they could get the funnel any more fouled up than the original design, but TxDot proved me wrong on that.
Didn’t know the parking set up was run by a Muzzi.

I think you misunderstood the post (or else I did.)
I believe this is what was intended: The horn is for warning people of a hazard (such as “I am here and it looks like you don’t see me”.) It is not the appropriate means for you to register your complaint for the slow service, and using it for that purpose conditions people to ignore actual hazards because they assume it’s just an impatient driver, not an actual hazard. That was my interpretation of the post, and if that is what was meant, I agree with it.
Sounds like LA...lol
The government figures if they can dump enough foreigners on us, it will completely divide what is left of the once united.
BTW, this tactic of dividing the united, is working extremely well for government
When I lived in Dallas for 12 years and flew a lot, I always appreciated you drivers moving quickly because it got me home quickly. To hell with the other posters and to hell with those idiot immigrants checking my ID at security. As if a woman wearing a burqa checking IDs at the security line is someone I trust.
Your riders appreciate you. To hell with your management.
