      This is not suggested as 1) honkers are usually already impatient and on edge 2) Road rage is real and very dangerous.

        Ironic considering honkers are usually impatient/mad and are misusing the car horn because of that.

          There is a period of time in which it becomes reasonable to honk at someone who hasn’t moved. In the extreme example it is not polite to sit behind someone who misses the green light entirely because they aren’t paying attention to the road. At some point the person in front is holding up traffic for everyone behind them and they are the one being rude.
