I couldn't agree with you more, how many times do we hear of or see utube videos of somebody so engrossed in their phone conversation or playing their game or looking at fb on their phone that they walk into fountains, enter intersections, fall into holes totally oblivious to what is in front of them. Not having a 'noise' that is like a 'car' is such BS in my opinion, it is just a way to force EV's into the gasser mentality. I was taught to look both ways before crossing, I used to live in NYC where I jaywalked all the time and never got hit. Is there a statistical analysis that shows who gets hit where? Or is all this 'we must have a sound' just anecdotal? Is there an actual study that says that people are likely to get run over by a car with no sound when they just cross without paying any attention to the roadway? Or is all just conjecture.
