Electric cars have to make noise on purpose because otherwise it would be a silent car. And most of these noises are are weird futuristic WEEEE-00000 UFO sounds. Therefore I posit that we should be able to change the noises our electric cars make

EDIT: These suggestions are Top-Notch! Keep em coming!

    Big difference between “a roaring muscle car” and Nyan Cat. One of those things is immediately recognisable as an approaching vehicle.

        “Could you not <absurd suggestion instead of conceding the point>”/

        Sure, whatever buddy. Lets all make things more difficult instead of just agreeing on sensible safety precautions.

        You won the pigeon chess match. Congrats.

          it’s a legitimate question.

          I don’t get what’s so absurd about observing your environment to ensure your safety.

          I guess you might be the type of person who burns to death in a burning building because you don’t smell the smoke.

          do you need to hear the fire in order to believe there’s a fire?

            It’s an absurd question, and if you think it has merit then I can only assume this conversation is going to become increasingly deranged.
