Can you hear me now?

U.S. Reps. Edolphus Towns, D-N.Y., and Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., are sponsors of the Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Act of 2008, a bill designed to test and set requirements for MINIMUM sound levles for cars. Hybrid and Electric cars are much quiter than standard gas powered cars and supposedly present a risk to pedestrians, espicially blind pedestrians trying to cross the street.

Many cities have limits on how loud your car can be, from stereos to glass packs, and now the feds are wanting to enforce how quiet it can be as well?

Maryland has already passed a similar law. Read more here.
