the issue is that visually impared people can't cross the road safely if they can't even HEAR cars coming any more, so most electric car manufacturers are artificially adding sounds to them.

Why are visually impaired individuals crossing the street without help? If you're too blind to see across the street safely, don't cross without help. I'm sorry but that is a lame reason to add sounds to vehicles. Bicycles also don't make any sounds and they have not been forced to make sounds.]]>Oct 30th 2008 9:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/Oct 30th 2008 10:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/Oct 30th 2008 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/Oct 30th 2008 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/
re: jim

Visually impaired people are often quite mobile and independent and don't necessarily need help to cross a street. I don't know where you're from but in the US, they're often indicated by the white cane and as a driver you're supposed to watch for them, not the other way around.]]>Oct 30th 2008 2:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/Oct 30th 2008 4:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/
Actually, in some states, it is illegal to turn off your engine -- or even put it in neutral -- when travelling down the street. In particular, the ability to control some vehicles is impaired without the engine running some accessories, e.g. power brakes, power steering, etc.]]>Oct 30th 2008 4:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/30/volt-to-make-star-trek-sound-effects-buyers-to-look-for-mute-bu/
1. People who love Big Oil
2. PC brigade members
3. People who are too stupid to realise that the days of their inefficient V6/V8/V10 is numbered

These three groups are in it for either money, fame or blatant stupidity (in that order).
