I've thought about this as well, except I think there should be one polite/quieter one for pedestrians and one loud for cars.

I hate the idea of honking the mega loud thing at a pedestrian being a dumbass. I don't want to scare them shitless and make a dangerous situation worse.

The most common use for the polite one in the US is aimed at other drivers to tell them to pay attention because the light has turned green.

Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.
