Damn thats crazy. At first I had no clue what your subject was. Maybe they need like a deer whistle on the bumper but something that people can hear. I know folks hear my loud a$$ tires coming down the street:clapping:

Did you see the comment from the biker about the Telsa? He said he heard the tires only about 30' from him. Then it went by, slight exhaust noise, then nothing.

Come on....I'm like many others in here hate hybrids, but come on, blaming the car because its too quiet. Whatever happen to just blaming the driver??

Then the article says that these cars are tooooo quiet. Christ, either its too big and iTs destroying the ozone and eating up all the oil or its to quiet and killing the blind.

GIVE ME A BREAK!!
