Hmm I think the benefits outweigh the risk in this case. Lose a couple blind people or reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air trying to prevent the next Ice Age. Touch choices here, guys.
Now you see here, there is a point/counter-point to this. I mean how can we discern which of the pedestrians that are walking around are blind? Sometimes they have canes, but if they have a dog? Couldn't they blend in to those normal dog walking pedestrians? I think there should be a quid-pro-quo where blind people need to differentiate themselves so we will know to take extra care when driving around them. I suggest a helmet with a strobe light on top. -steve
Fart cans! Even better. Nothing says "look out" like a pair of fart cans. (ok, Yosh cans, but that's not as funny).
But I was referring to what I said and... never mind. Would you believe there are actually people out there looking for exhaust options for their Prius? http://priuschat.com/index.php?showtopic=28163&st=0 Maybe I should join and point him to ebay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyo...013QQitemZ230082417710QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V I don't know which is funnier.
Yeah, here we go trying to please everyone again. Blind people want to stand or walk in the streets unmolested, many others want absolutely silent autos, some of us others want to hear the sound of a perfectly tuned v12 driving by: what's next, putting little bells on the side of our houses so the blind people won't run into it? I suppose that the feds can "mandate" that anyone driving a silent auto drag a couple of tin cans behind the car. That ought to do it. Yeah!:up:
Read a while back that there is still a law in some cities that if you are going to drive through them in an automobile, you must be preceded by a man on foot warning horsemen that your automobile is coming...
