Sorry signal
For those not-so-aggressive drivers

This is an idea my sister had... In addition to the regular horn, cars should have a "sorry" signal on them for when you commit a driving faux pas and feel the need to acknowledge your error. You know, when you almost cut someone off, ar accidentaly bling them with your brights, etc. The signal could either be a horn that plays a cute musical phrase (as opposed to the regular horn's "angry" sound), or it could be like the signs tat they have on Taxis, and it would just display the word "sorry".

       Whenever I do something wrong in the car, I always raise my hand and say sorry because I'm not trying to be an asshole. But then I feel really stupid because I know the person in the other car can't hear me. Croissant for you.

       the premise is good but it would create more "driving faux pas" because of the extra distraction.
