This is a good point. But same goes for other sensors in cars. I always wondered how annoying AF ultra-sonic sensors are for dogs. It looks like most ultrasonic sensors are out of range for dogs, but the ultrasonics for sure mess with bats. I wonder how bat populations will be affected when all of these ultrasonic sensors mess with their ability to hunt.

- hwillis 9y agoUltrasound transducers are not the only producers of ultrasound, nor the loudest. Most things that vibrate create ultrasound, including almost anything that moves. Noise pollution is mostly produced accidentally. Also, nocturnal bats will largely be unaffected by cars in no small part because they don't cohabitate with humans very much.
