Car honk / Alarm question vent

Does your car have to honk when you lock the doors?

The daycare by my house is having an event.  I kid you not,at least 10 other people who have parked on the side street in front of my house have honked when they locked their doors. I wouldn't mind if DS's room wasn't 20 feet away and he wasn't taking a nap, but it is really necessary?

Our house is in a quiet neighborhood.  The daycare is on its own behind it, we don't live in a busy commercial district.

    Yes mine does but I'm pretty sure I can change the setting to just flash the lights or do nothing at all.  :(  For me, its just convenient because I don't have to look, only listen and that confirms the doors are locked.  So really, I'm lazy. 

    Sorry, that would be annoying to listen to.

    Mine only honks if I lock them twice.  Its like my car is giving me attitude because I already locked it.

    Mine use to honk when I locked it, now it just flashes the lights. I'd like it to honk (same as a pp mentioned) but I'm too lazy to change it, lol.

    It honks only if I push the button twice.  But you can change the settings on most systems.

    My husband's honks and we can't figure out a way to change it.  :(

    No, but I press it enough times to hear a "beep". It's the only way that I know that I've locked my car. And there have been many times where I haven't pressed it to hear the beep and I have left my sliding door open on my minivan. 

    So, I feel your pain, but for me, it's necessary to hear that beep........
