Correct answer
avoid a possible accident.
You may sound an audible warning to avoid a possible accident, especially on narrow roads with many bends. Do not use the horn to greet someone or invite pedestrians to cross. Avoid harsh sounds and unnecessary or excessive use. The rules also allow warning of an intention to overtake outside built-up areas and indicating presence in the specified case of a non-priority vehicle on urgent duty under Article 70; avoiding a crash is therefore not the sole permitted use in every situation.
