Survey: Should Hybrids Be Made Noisier?

We recently learned that "A bill intended to protect blind people and other pedestrians from the dangers posed by quiet cars will be introduced in Congress. The measure would require the Transportation Department to establish safety standards for hybrids and other vehicles that make little discernible noise, including an audible means for alerting people that cars are nearby."

So hybrids are too quiet and will be required to have boom boxes playing loud music or baseball cards in the spokes.
