Yhonk

YHonk is an evidence-based technological system designed to curb the menace of excessive vehicular honking by providing a wide range of honking behavior databases that can enable policymakers to restrict unwanted honking. “Just as a sim card data limit, the YHonk device will limit the number of honks per user.” Monitoring the honking will give crucial insights into the service level gaps and accident-prone zones of the transport infrastructure by assessing the driving comfort levels and the conflict with pedestrians, cyclists, animals, and other vehicles. Profitable as a business: The scope of the private sector engagement is as original equipment manufacturers (OEM'S), system as a software (SAAS’S), consultancy cum advisory firms. Social cause: It aims at minimizing public health issues and environmental impact by leveraging the precautionary principle. Government utility: The system works on polluter pay principle generating revenue for Government that may be used for self-financing and mitigation purposes.
