Excessive horn use, the sign warned, violates 27001 CVC.

Spotted outside of the Warner Bros lot.

We cant help that people love us […] #WGAstrong.

The sign, of course, raised eyebrows forstrike participantsand passersby alike.

What was 27001 CVC, anyway?

Is there really some sort of prohibition on car-honking in the Golden State?

Could this be some sort of Banksy-like prank to drum up still more auditory support forstriking writers?

As it turns out, the sign is not some sort of performance art.

The WGA strike began on May 2, 2023.

So you could, theoretically, wind up behind bars for honking if they threw the book at you.

Residents kvetching about horns seemed to invoke discourse on disorderly behavior.

A message sign was also put outside the approach to Disneys studios following complaints about honking.

Neither Warner Bros., Disney, nor WGA reps immediately responded to requests for comment.
