Now we are going to hear constant beeping like those carts in the airports...

Oh no, the Department of automobile sounds will allow you to customize car sounds.

Like downloading tunes into your cell phone....But only pleasant animal sounds will be allowed.

For instance, as a funny gesture, a husband might elect to download hen squawking sounds into his wife's car.

The wife might want snorting pigs sounds, for her husbands cute little electric compact.

Yeah, there are lots of silent bicycles out there riding around. Can blind people hear them? They will certainly be injured if they walk out in front of one.

How about the moaning of a very vocal woman having a very deep orgasm? Now that would get most people’s attention.

Sorry, the Department of Automobile Sounds will only allow animals sounds for electric vehicles....

You could possibly substitute orangutans doing it, or others from the great ape family.

That might also help the blind drivers but I think the blind pedestrians need to make more noise too. There aughta be a law.

Hey John-Boy, what happens when the pedestrian is blind and deaf?

That’s the only thing I like about our Prius: it’s very quiet. My husband used to come home from work late, and you couldn’t hear him drive up our driveway. He wouldn’t wake the kids whose room was right above the driveway.

Bingo :)

I remember buying my 2 boys those noisy Big Wheels one Christmas.

Dec. 26 I ‘emasculated ‘ them.
