I see a car backing out of a driveway a head of me, I dont even chance it that they will look, stop or keep going… I pull in the clutch and twist a few times… 90% of the time They will just about snap their neck and look right at you. it works. Same as a intersection, I come in and drop a gear and make alot of noise. it does work.

a horn serves the same purpose. i know what you mean about not hearing it on the highway though, there was a bike that came up behind me other day doing 100+ scared the shit out of me it was so loud. didnt even hear it til he was right next to me.
