I don't remember all the horn honking that Russell tells of, when we were in 
China, but that was a dozen years ago now ...

But when travelling in Italy, someone I knew reckoned that if someone honked 
angrily at you, the best thing to do was stop and wave the other person on. 
Apparently Italian folk cannot have someone else being more polite than 
them, so they stop and wave you on. Haven't been to Italy to try this out 
yet.
