India's Honk Code: Drivers Speak Fluent Noise Pollution
In India’s famously chaotic megacities, where traffic moves about as smoothly as a Bollywood plot twist, honking isn’t just noise—it's a high-stakes language. One driver’s urgent ‘beep beep’ means ‘Get outta my way,’ while to the poor pedestrian, it’s a daily concert of sound pollution, starring India's urban jungles. This bizarre traffic dialect thrives despite modern tech's silent dreams, proving some cultures prefer their communication like their curries—loud, spicy, and impossible to ignore. In a land where a honk can mean anything from 'Sorry!' to 'I own this lane!', it’s safe to say earplugs are the real unsung heroes of Indian commuting.
