Or honk. Does your Vespa have a honk? In Vietnam, we honk our bikes to alert others especially around a curve. Foreign visitors complain about all the honking, and they are indeed annoying sometimes, but there is a reason why people do it.

This reminds me of a PBS interview I saw recently [1]. In the interview the guest, Robert Putnam, gave the example of Francis Perkins, who was having tea with friends when the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire broke out in 1911. 146 women di
