No one is honking but I can see some displeasure in some peoples faces. A lot of this could be resolved by going one street over in either direction which is residential and follows this same road all the way to the end. Maybe this is just how I think but it is what I would have done in this situation. Compared to the roads on either side they are all about the same there is no major hill climbs or descents very flat stuff.
I'm usually in the "courtesy works both ways" camp, but this one prompts me to ask. If you have two residential streets that go pallarel to the main street to the end, why don't those cars take those streets? I'm hoping your answer isn't "because the cars would have to drive more slowly on those streets."
