if trains honk at every crossing (in the US), shouldn't cars be honking at every crosswalk?

if trains honk at every crossing (in the US), shouldn't cars be honking at every crosswalk? - Lemmy.world

In addition to the whole ‘a car is diffent from a train’ aspect; trains don’t always ‘honk’ in the US

Neither do they here (Austria) even though my driving instructor was adamant that they do. “You can trust that if there’s no honk, there is no train.”

Thanks, driving instructor, but I’d rather go with “if there is no train, then there is no train”.
