In case a pedestrian suddenly appears on the road at a certain distance from your moving vehicle, it is not only possible but also necessary to use sound signals. You must also use the claxon in other cases, for example, in order to warn other road users of a possible collision or hit with a pedestrian or with another car. Don`t ever use the sound signal to call someone from the building, to require to open a gate or to accelerate the motion of a car moving next to you, if it is delaying a maneuver.

Outside the settlements the sound signal should be used, if you want to warn of overtaking another vehicle. The way of warning chosen by the driver depends on who is he going to warn: if the driver of another vehicle, the claxon should be pressed several times; in order to capture the attention of a pedestrian or a cyclist, the driver should submit several short signals. To avoid scaring anyone, the sound should be made at a distance and not very loud.
