The video partially contradicts that. Electric motors are quieter than engines, but tire noise tends to be higher, since EVs tend to be heavier than their gas

I would, though, definitely like to banish the sound of idling diesel engines from cities. Replace diesel buses and garbage trucks, and fine the operators of ships, trains, and heavy industrial equipment based on the amount of noise they generate in an urban area.

Why shouldn't ruining the environment be costly? 120dB leaf blower? $200 more expensive than the quiet one. And measure car/motorbike noise for registration and have a fee for every decibel. I can dream, can't I?
