Back side of the truct — “The horn that wakes the sleepers! The shield that guard the realms of men!” *George R.R. Martin,*

India is the most happening country in the world. If you are a foreigner, a visit to India brings one of the best experiences you ever had.

You get accustomed to the honking horns with funny sounding tunes of variable decibels, a characteristic trait on the Indian roads. There is so much noise in the air, I am sure next time you come well prepared with plugged ears.

As a foreigner, don’t be surprised if you come across the commercial trucks with a standard phrase painted on the rear” Horn OK please’. The idea behind this is to alert the driver of a vehicle approaching from behind to honk their horn so that they can overtake the vehicle in the front without hassles.

In the third World, honk your horn only under the following circumstances.

When anything blocks the road

When anything doesn’t

When anything might

At red lights

At green lights

At all other times

I can understand ‘Horn Please’…….but OK in between??

Somebody gave an explanation that earlier days, trucks used to run On Kerosene…hence the name OK.

For a further explanation check this link. Ever Wondered Why ‘Horn OK Please’ Is Painted On The Back Of Trucks?

Another interesting thing is you can notice is the painting of’ ‘Demon‘ sometimes known as Drishti who wards off the forces of evil.
