In a section marked with the "Horn Zone" sign, you must sound the horn at intersections where you have a clear view to the left and right.

「警笛区間」の標識がある区間では、左右の見通しのよい交差点で警音器を鳴らさなければならない。

This statement is FALSE

Explanation

False. In a horn zone you must honk at intersections with POOR visibility, at blind bends, and at the crest of blind uphill slopes — not where the view is clear.
