   If you MUST have an efficient sensible responsible car whats to stop you from playing sound effects from the public address system?

   There is a short science fiction story about this possibility (sound effects broadcast) but it turns on the concept of everyone wanting to have a fast muscle car when traffic is so gridlocked it moves at 5 miles an hour all the time. :)

   I’ve read that visually impaired groups are pushing to have electric and hybrid cars make noise. Those cars are so quiet that those with low vision/blind cannot hear them coming and find it harder to know when it is safe to cross the street.

   I agree with Saucy. A hybrid can be so quiet it just seems like it’s rolling. I’m one of those people who tells cars are coming as much by sound as by sight and I have to be more careful now.

   I actually did one a while back about the mafia using electric cars as murder weapons because you’d never hear them coming… I’ll have to dig that one out and put it in my blog.

   So, instead of blowing smoke out the exhaust, I guess they’ll be making sparks and blowing out ozone?
