The most important thing to do is reserve your rental car before you depart. Since so many people choose this option for getting around Kauai, rental cars are in very high demand, especially during July. So much so that if you travel during peak periods and don't rent a car in advance, it is possible that there may be little to no cars available to rent. And if you are able to snag one last-minute, the prices will most certainly be much higher. Honking as a means of telling someone to hurry up is very frowned upon.
