I know there is probably a good reason behind this, (easy access maybe?) but why are car horns a giant pad which requires pressure instead of a button like that of the cruise control system on your steering wheel?
Why are car horns push pads and not push buttons?
Money. Easy to make, more expensive to fix...
Remember that you have a 1/4 stick of dynamite in the wheel as well....( airbag )
Reply:You think you could find that little button in an emergency? Easier to go for the middle of that big wheel right in front of you. Simple answer...make it easy to get to.
Ford did have their horn %26quot;button%26quot; on a steering column armature in the 80s for some vehicles. Guess they came to their senses.
Reply:They do have ones that are just buttons. It could just be that on some cars you have to really press for the horn. If most horns are air-pressure, then they might have to have more pressure. Just a thought...
Reply:Most of the time when you hit the horn, it is an emergency situation. You don%26#039;t have the time to look around and find the small button you are thinking of. You need a large target, so that you don%26#039;t have to take your eyes off of the road. It could be a child on a bicycle coming out of a driveway, or something else like that.
It is for safety reasons.
Reply:its just the way things are. It has missed the hole Technology thing for years and decades. Sooner or later all you have to do is think get the hell out of the way and the horn will go off. Clap on Clap off.
Reply:so you could press the horn faster to avoid an accident
they had a recall on some fords where the horn was on the turn signal
