1 second. If they ain't moving when light turns green then they are hearing "honk" if they ain't moving after that then it's "hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooonk!"

They shouldn't be looking at their damn phone in the first place.

Your answer doesn't surprise me. Your posts are usually pretty angry.

Horns are so misunderstood.

Why are people so offended by a slight horn tap when they're not paying attention at a green light? I appreciate the reminder if I ever do that.

The horn doesn't always mean "frick you, you fricking twat bastard". It can mean "hey there guy, the light is green and I need to get to work, look up. Carry on with the rest of your day new friend".

My horn is old so I can't do the short beeps that are friendly. It can only do the 3 second honk.

Agreed, using the horn to communicate must be similar to having Tourette Syndrome.

sometimes I pretend to look at phone and wait one second just to see if I got a badass behind me.

3 seconds.

In NOLA you have 0.5 seconds and then you are being honked at.

If you're anything like my brother-in-law, instantly.

If you are like the rest of civilization, three second sounds reasonable.

It pretty cool in that rare occasion where everyone in line is paying attention and in a hurry and the entire queue takes off at the same time. Unfortunately most of the time it's like the others accelerate like they have a bottle of nitroglycerin sitting on their dash board.
