Hmm, they did a bunch of studies before moving forward with creating a framework for the sounds required. The article's fairly decent. Should check it out :-)

- gorkish 4y agoDo these studies explain why ICE cars and hybrids and "Neighborhood Electric Vehicles" that are similarly quiet do not have to have noisemakers? Or would you prefer we ask the GM lobbyist to explain it to us?
- codyb 4y agoLol, I dunno man, you clearly have some sort of viewpoint you're staunchly confident is the way the world works. I just read the article, electronic vehicles are very quiet, this has been my experience biking around NYC as well. So they're adding sounds. It's a no brainer. But sure, whatever cynical take you have on the entire situation is probably fine too. I'd be fine with them adding sounds to the electric bikes that zoom past me in the bike lane without _ever_ giving me notice that they're coming up on my side. I find it frustrating every time.
