How does a motorcycle's horn compare to that of a car?

A motorcycle's horn typically isn't as loud as a car's horn primarily due to design and space constraints. Motorcycles are smaller, and their horns are constructed to be compact, which generally results in lower sound output compared to the larger, more robust horns found in cars. The purpose of the horn is the same in both vehicles, serving as a signal to alert others on the road. However, because motorcycles often operate in environments where their sound may need to be more discerning, riders rely on other safety measures, such as visibility and positioning, in conjunction with using the horn. Understanding that motorcycles have a different design philosophy contributes to recognizing the difference in sound output and effectiveness in various situations.
