It needs to make a little noise.
Plus the additives in gas is doing horrible damage to the water pollution wise compared to what ever went into the air, so I'm not buying much of the eco-claims of what is better for us.
A car can be a deadly weapon. Being it is a large MOVING object, there needs to have something added that makes noise. Call it a Yoko Ono device if you will, but it needs to be happen IMO.
Yup, babies and kids make this issue a bigger problem.

You're lucky that didn't crush your stroller -- those hybrids are pretty heavy, what with the batteries and all.
You should put a bell on your child, so if a hybrid sneaks up and moves the baby out of your stroller, you hear it clearly.
I hope the hybrid moved the baby out of the stroller before it climbed in. Otherwise that could have been messy.
