Hey! Watch where you are going!!!!!!
We see this all the time, on busy interstates, traffic in all of your 3 lanes, you in the outside lane trying to stay safe, and get to your destination, then you see them coming on the on-ramp, cell phone in the left hand, a cigarette in the right hand, not looking to see if there is a space to merge into....then you brake as they merge into you.......
Not if you have 'The Anvil' He he.... 
It may just cause a wreck in all three lanes, I don't know, yea maybe a little overkill, but makes me smile. Some of these people need to have to change undergarments at times the way they drive.
I will probably just stay with my 130 DB Hadley's, OR not, but thought you GUYS, (sorry girls, I think it's a guy thing,) would get a kick out of these babys...
Ebay, Horn set.

 On our way to Fla last year, this huge straight truck was even with my wife before he had to slam on his brakes. I couldn't go left and he didn't want to BLEND in! When he caught back up to us, he went around on the left showing his friendly wave, you know the one, with one finger. It was an industrial truck and we missed the phone number on the door. If only we had got that we would have called his employer immediatly.
As a suggestion, keep your eyes open for these fools and prey they do stop. This was on a four lane and could have caused a huge accident in which we would have in the middle of!
Since this has happened, I have been driving in the second lane from the left when going thru towns. Only if there is more than two lanes though.

Wonder if we can fashion a temporary mount with battery pack. I see promise here: mount on rental Golf Cart for Myrtle Beach trips, mount on bicycle for state park visits, mount on DW during RV projects when DH intentionally will not take advice (OOOOOPPPPSSS!!!), mount on myself when children won't listen, and on and on and on............

Hey, thanks someone for the shortcut, I really need to figure out how to do that. Maybe you could send me the instructions..
Down at South Padre, I ride my bicycle everywhere, I put 1,000 miles on it last Winter around the island. I had a few close calls with people backing out into me, SO....I went to a Wal*Mart and in the boating section I bought a air horn on a compressed air can..ha ha, it saved me a few times. I carry it in a beverage holder right at my handlebars.
I used it at Branson, LOUD>>

The Harbor Freight will do, but I would go with a 5 gallon tank. The sound varies with higher and lower air pressures, but that compressor would work. It's basically a Viair clone.

I'm with you on this one Ozz. I upgraded my stock Volvo horns to 120db twin air horns on Overkill and I use them at entrance ramps as necessary. Sure gets the cell phone/smoker/makeup artist/haircurler and newspaper reader's attention.

That would make a nice addition...love to see the look on someones face with that going off.
Those people that merge without looking really comes to mind, but it would probably run them off the road to escape the oncoming train...LOL

Jo helps wash. wax and polishes aluminum. But, I wash dishes and vacuum. Work goes twice as fast that way.
Have never evaluated the train horns. There is a thread on Train Horns on the Escapees HDT forum now, here......
