I frequently get compliments and thanks when I approach pedestrians from behind and ring my bell. Before I had a bell, I said "behind," "on your left/right," etc, but more often than not, people would be startled and move erratically in response to my voice. I find that they now immediately recognize the bell, move aside, and are generally more calm and predictable in comparison. I have an electronic horn to alert motorists in traffic.

I use this bell.
