    Waking up the safety operator perhaps.

    While the person honking probably doesn’t intend it that way, it gives a warning to others who can’t see it yet to be careful, because something unusual is happening.

      I’ll concede that you bring up the point of honking overall, but in the case of this waymo how would honking help?

    I know but in my area people will be pissed and be honking not that I agree but I’m surprised how calm people are with this nonsense of being live beta tester.
