    People worried about the blind is a more powerful lobby.

    As far as I can tell the regulation is based off of one very flawed study that even cautions that the sample size is too small to draw conclusions. Have there been any follow up studies after all these years of noisemakers being on electric cars to see if it's made a difference? I'm not aware of any. o_O

    if they did a study, and it showed the noisemakers weren't working, they would just make them louder. meanwhile, as gas engines got quieter and quieter, no one noticed, except the blind :rolleyes:
