Never.

Even though I have thumb buttons (infinitely superior to center button), I'm too busy watching and reacting to remember to hit my horn.

For its intended purpose (as opposed to honking at my friends)? Maybe once a week. That's an average, because some weeks I use it 2 or 3 times, and some I never use it. People around here drive fairly well.

Today I used my horn and my finger when some zigzagging ass in a Sonata cut across three land with no blinker and almost clipped me.

A couple times a week, which is extremely seldom considering I drive 8 hours a day, but I'm not supposed to honk in the delivery car. In my own vehicle I honk more because I can and people suck at driving/being a pedestrian.

*Not saying I'm a perfect driver/pedestrian, bu that doesn't stop me from using my horn

Not often, I usually just yell to myself and give dirty looks.

Eh, depends. I used it a lot more while living in Chicago, but I've toned it down now. I will still honk at people sitting at green lights, that's about it.

I stay prepared. Hands near horn at all times I am stopped. If you fricking don't pay attention at a stop light, you get my unmerciful honk within 2 seconds

I give a friendly honk to my friends when I see them in a parking lot. Maybe once or twice a month I'll give somebody a little honk who isn't moving at a green light.

I live in the country so honking at dogs/cats/deer/etc. is a daily occurence so, every time I drive basically. I also honk briefly whenever someone else does something *really* stupid.

Overall though I'm a very relaxed driver and I have no interest in road rage or "me first" mentality.

I played with mine the other day because I had no idea what it sounded like. I've had this car since October.

I don't live in a city, or near one, really, so I have little need for a horn. Even when given the opportunity I rarely use it though and I dislike people who are trigger happy with theirs.

At least once a day here in the DC area.

Last minute unsafe lane changes without a signal is what usually makes it happen.

Pretty rare...every month or so maybe? Only if someone is coming into my space and my escape route is being taken simultaneously. I'm in DC metro traffic so I hear horns constantly...kind of makes them have no effect.

I honk when someone does something unreasonable and/or stupid that causes me to decelerate or rechart my course. Like say that car with battle damage on the left side strays unreasonably far (read at all) into the left lane as I'm going by it. Or someone drives through an intersection when there's no room for them on the other side and blocks my green light. Or merges and then immediately moves to the left-most lane immediately in front of me and then slams on the brakes to make a left turn...

In the BRZ, only when people are trying to kill me or paying attention to their phone instead of the light. The horn's been ganked from the MR2 because racecar, though I find myself wanting one more in it.
