At a news conference today, Surgeon General LuBelle Fooser urged Americans to get more exercise, saying that one-third of all U.S. drivers are so overweight they can honk the horn using only their stomach.
“In fact,” stated Fooser, “drivers often honk by accident because their stomach is so close to the wheel.”
She said such inadvertent belly honking has led to serious road rage incidents. “I strongly advise people to avoid areas with lots of fat drivers and guns,” said Fooser.
