Today is ‘No Honking Day’ in Mumbai; this is the first of its kind to raise awareness of the effects of honking and noise pollution. Mumbai has a population of almost 15 million, 1.5 million vehicles including taxis and rickshaws, which amount to about one vehicle for every ten people. If you’ve ever visited Mumbai, I’m sure you’ve experienced the traffic congestion and insane amount of honking that makes this city so vibrant. Although, after a while it does become quite annoying.
This 'sounds' amazing

What happens if someone does honk?
Not quite sure, people can most likely get away with it. But as I understand they've been building an awareness using banners, etc. So if you do honk, it's just bad for your karma, i guess.
