Band 9.0 Sample Answer.
If you live in my country long enough, you will totally agree with me that those who are driving make a lot of noise, especially during peak traffic hours.
All roads have never been free of the honking noises of all kinds of vehicles from vans and cars, to mopeds.
It is, in my opinion, the most annoying sound you could imagine. Whenever I heard people honking like angry geese, I felt very annoyed and frustrated.
A majority of people should learn when to use the horn properly.
It seems to me that they push the horn all the time because they want to be able to drive fast, while everyone else gets out of their way.
Despite the fact that I hate it so much, I cannot give up driving here. So I learned to ignore it, and use my horn sparingly or just in case of emergency.
However, I still think that the city should have a campaign on educating people to use the horn in a proper way so that the city is not polluted by noise.
