Dear Sir ,
Sub: Concerns related to the thoughtless honking by vehicle drivers
Greetings! I am Vishranthi residing in Lakshman Nagar for the last 13 years. I have been driving in the last 8 years and over the years I have noticed how reckless people drive on the road and over and above honking inconsiderately and without the need for it most times.
To close my ears, I use my fingertips. It is such a pain on the road, especially if you drive a two-wheeler or rickshaw. It is probably not a single day when I am not irritated by the awful and unnecessary honking on the road. And the horn's sound ratio is excessively large than the vehicle's size. Motorcycles blare their horns so loudly that I at times I jump with fright thinking a truck is coming. Horns were placed inside the cars so that the driver of the vehicle and other travelers can warn pedestrians in the event of any risk. It should be used as a tool to warn others and make them aware that they are careful while driving along sharp lanes. However, today's horns seem to indicate our inflated ego and an expression of wrath and impatience. We blast the horn unceasingly so that we can avoid driving problems with care. "I had blown the horn.
He should have moved out of my way,” is a standard line that people use if someone hits their car. It is not the right way to behave on the roads by - simply blowing the horn and riding carelessly all the time. The culture of honking undoubtedly has created a society that even for small things on the road it increases decibel levels and fists for trivial matters on the road. The traffic pressure and tradition of' me first' in the roads may be a product of the rage and its resulting violence. In addition to the discomfort and unlikable emotion evoked by constant honking, it can also be hazardous to our health.
Sounds with high decibels can cause ailment and exposure to health risks, including partial or complete deafness. Studies have shown that traffic police officers exposed to this noise constantly may suffer partial or complete hearing loss. Many recent reports suggest that the noise from traffic can lead to higher stress levels, quality of sleep, increased blood pressure and poor living standards. Despite efforts by many organisations, people can hardly be seen any change to attitude and to raise awareness of this bad habits about the harmful effects of traffic noise. Strict regulations, such as restricting the permissible decibel level for horn of various vehicle types, placing a penalty on drivers who unnecessarily tune, such as when the first vehicle moves or in places such as universities/schools/hospitals, can be an introduction. Driving classes and driving license tests must include provisions for instilling the habit of honking only when required
I request your kind self to publish this letter in your esteemed newspaper so that it could make some change in the people who thoughtless honk while driving on the road.
Yours Sincerely '
Vishranthi Rathod
