My daughter and I were in a local park’s parking lot a few days ago headed to the trail when I heard this really strange and bizarre sounding vehicle coming up behind us. It sounded like a high performance engine, highly muffled and muddy sounding with a lawnmower overtone. Turned out to be an electric car moving slowly with the added noise coming from a loudspeaker to alert pedestrians. I’ve read that some car makers are doing that, but it was the first time I’ve heard one.

Are you sure it wasn't Jake or Elwood?

Good to hear because I was almost creamed in a parking lot by some kid in a silent electric car, driving like an idiot and whipping around corners without regard to those on foot.
