Seemed more than a bit pointless to me - as one of the comments said, it's just a couple of minutes of a bloke making silly faces.

Do you mean the Ford which has its horn in the middle of the steering wheel....where the driver was 'pushing'? At around 46 seconds?

 

[jig-sore]

what about the air bag then ??????

Weird film

Safety feature....press the horn too hard, it blows your hand off...sorted.

PS the guy is a bit odd..........

 

[jig-sore]

do fords really have the horn push on top of the air bag ???? how very strange !!!

i thought center of wheel horns ended when air bags were introduced

can someone please tell or i won't sleep tonight

Well, that was/is immature rubbish - as any commuter cyclist will agree.

My old fiesta's horn was in the centre of the steering wheel....though you'd be hard pushed to hit it with enough force to set it off......what did you say about stupid people .

I did hear a story that a girl in my school dumped her boyfriend. He left her house, very annoyed, got in his car and thumped the steering wheel as hard as possible....setting off the air bag

How disparaging.

I think that film does more to make people embarrassed for cyclists than lycra has ever done.
