I think cyclists need to exercise a similar level of imagination. http://www.cbc.ca/thisisthat/blog/2013/10/01/govt-says-canada-needs-a-universal-language-of-car-horn-honks/Russ Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05720677477964266661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7207584811195702217.post-5685353287265534992013-10-11T18:51:48.088-07:002013-10-11T18:51:48.088-07:00"Unknown" here being me, Kate.
