Three short bursts of a horn typically signal a warning or alert, often indicating that the vehicle or vessel is about to engage in a maneuver, such as leaving a dock or crossing paths with another vessel. In maritime contexts, this sound can also denote a request for permission to proceed or a notification of an impending action. The specific meaning can vary depending on the situation and the regulatory framework in place.
