"Beep, beep" is #onomatopoeia representing a noise, generally of a pair of identical tones ( #beeps) following one after the other, often generated by a #machine or device such as a #carHorn. It is commonly associated with the #RoadRunner (commonly interpreted as "meep meep") in #LooneyTunes cartoons featuring the speedy-yet- #flightlessBird and his constant pursuer, #WileECoyote. #BeepBeep is the name of a 1952 #WarnerBros cartoon in the #MerrieMelodies series.
