I have recently had to blast my horn for about 2 minutes while I was driving.

Got me wondering: Does using the horn for long periods of time damage it/wear it out?

2003 Opel Agila

    Only if you use it too long, then someone might shoot you.

    In what kind of situation you HAVE to blast the horn for two minutes?

No not at all, the horn is not gonna get damaged. My old Nissan Maxima once had a faulty hood lock switch and the alarm went off during night. The alarm was on for almost all the night and the horn was honking too, I knew it the next day when there was a notice hanging on my apartment door.
