Having lived in several states and in Mexico, I can attest to this...

Horns in Texas are generally a door bell..... Hello! I'm in your driveway!

 Otherwise...

Horns in Mexico are a warning to let folks know that you have no brakes or 
in a hurry... in that order.+
Horns in San Antonio are to let folks know someone made them angry.
Horns in Houston lets folks know they are in a hurry,angry, late, tired or 
just in a bad mood.
Horns in Austin generally don't work. They've been burned out from over use.
Horns in Alice, Texas and the car they are attached to, don't work.
Horns in Corpus Christi are door bells.
Horns in the Rio Grande Valley are musical and a way to say ... HI!.... if 
they work.
Horns on a motorcycles are for passing a state inspection.
Horns on an animal are the only horns that are used as designed.
