Syrian Sonar Driving

Arriving in Syria I straight away noticed that everyone was tooting their horn. Was it at me?? the cars around me did not appear to be doing anything wrong. Drivers honk when:

- passing a car
- at cars in side roads
- just before the lights go green
- entering an intersection
- at pedestrians crossing the roads

The only explanation for this is drivers navigate around other cars on the road by sound. This would explain the constant tooting and erratic driving.
