What is a "horn"?

A horn is a device in a vehicle used to make a loud noise, typically to alert other drivers or pedestrians of the vehicle's presence or to warn of potential danger. The horn is usually activated by pressing a button or pad on the steering wheel. It is a key safety feature, helping drivers communicate and avoid accidents, especially in situations where visibility is poor or when another driver might not be aware of the vehicle’s approach.

What is "rush hour"?

Rush hour is the period of the day when there is a high volume of people traveling to or from work, school, or other activities. This typically happens in the early morning and late afternoon or evening, when traffic on the roads, buses, and trains is at its busiest. During rush hour, public transportation services and roadways can become crowded, leading to longer travel times. It is a common challenge in cities where many people rely on public transport or cars for their daily commutes.

dopravní zácpa

What is a "traffic jam"?

A traffic jam is a situation where vehicles are unable to move freely because there are too many cars on the road. This often happens during busy times, such as rush hours, or when there is an accident, construction, or a blockage. In a traffic jam, cars move very slowly or come to a complete stop, causing delays for drivers and passengers. Traffic jams can be frustrating and time-consuming, and they often happen in cities or on highways with heavy traffic.
