Choose Civility Campaign - Transportation Etiquette

March is Transportation Etiquette Month in our Choose Civility Campaign.

In the Blog this month we are focusing on driving etiquette.

Honking in a driveway!

You are picking someone up, you get to their house, pull in the driveway, how do let the person know you have arrived?

You are sleeping... it is really early and you are jarred by the sound of a horn in the neighbor’s driveway. Please know, blowing a horn, other than in an emergency or as a warning, is not only loud, but it is very impolite.

It is the equivalent of walking up to a building and yelling from the sidewalk to let someone know you are there to meet them….

The considerate action is to get out of the car, and walk up to their door. This act not only shows respect for the person you are meeting....but also for the neighbors.
