I have seen people hooting at crossing gates to show their frustration. Are they barmy or what?
Paul.

That reminds me of a Mercedes that was inching across an unmanned crossing at Norton near Stockton On Tees as I approached it doing about 30mph. I blew my horn to warn him and he just reveresed in time before I'd have hit him. He blew his horn cos he was annoyed at me. I sort of wished I hadn't blown then just to show him what sort of a mess I'd have made of his car if I hadn't.
