Silent vs Anal
Anal will win in at this time in our nation’s existence.
The ability for U. S. Citizens to find something to complain about knows no bounds.
Give them zero emissions and they’re still hot happy.

A card and a close-pin on the spokes.
To: Willie Green
Thank you for posting this. I've been mentioning this as a major problem since the advent years ago of the first electric cars here in the “People's Republic of California”.
Everyone is at risk with all the silence. People and especially more kids are likely to pop into the road and get hurt.
Maybe they need to go back to the old noisy “playing cards in the spokes of bikes” method or whatever. What ever then can do will be better than silence IMO.

“Hybrid creep” often defines BOTH the car and the owner.

(If leftist legislation that's already in place really can't be ended by non-leftists, then what?)
To: Willie Green
I have a great idea. I need a financial backer though. We could come up with a device that makes a loud audible noise and equip these hybrid electric cars with them. That way when an unaware pedestrian walks out in front of of the driver, the driver could press the devise and it would warn the pedestrian of impending danger. The Gov’t could make them mandatory on all vehicles. I know I could make big money with that one. Anyone want to go in with me on it?

Reminds me of our experience a few decades ago.
We had an early electric car (an enclosed golf car, really) and wanted to get insurance. One company refused to insure us because “electric cars sneak up on other cars and hit them.”

The Prious is a sneaky little bastard. Had one creep up on me while standing in a neighborhood street to view a house exterior. I checked both ways before doing it and can always hear a “normal” car coming. This little turd crept up to about 5 feet from me before I sensed something was there.

Maybe Rachel Carson could write a book and call it Silent Green.

To: Willie Green
Got an idea. With the purchase of a hybrid you get a CD with the sounds of a big block chevy and an external speaker on the grill.
Problem solved.

Government mandate coming....You have to sing while you drive..and it is broadcast from 4 speakers strategically placed on your car. If one breaks, it will only cost $500 plus labor to fix.
