Is it legal to use air horns?

Is it legal under any circumstances e.g age of car, type etc to use a 5 tone air horn.

Is it legal to use air horns?
It is illegal to use any type of horn that emits more than one tone, unless the tones are simultaneous. There are no exceptions.
Reply:i yhink the highway code says, the hours of darkness, and then only to warn others of your presence,


i had them on a company vehicle and they were always dissconnected at each service, dunno why i just wired them back up, and i think you still have to have standard horn in a usable state

Reply:I%26#039;m pretty certain that air horns cannot be used on cars manufactured after (forgot month) 1986 at all.
Reply:i think there are legal in most cases
Reply:It depends on the local laws where you live. If it is legal where you live and have the car registered, then as you go into other areas you are still legal, no matter what the local law. Other areas generally reciprocate in accepting each others rules. I heard a story about someone in the US driving a car with dark tinted windows which were legal in his state, into a state in which they were illegal. He was stopped, warned that if he became a resident he would have to get rid of the tinting and was allowed to go without a fine.





Check your local laws.
