Over-regulation. EU mandates Electric Vehicles must make noise

It seems from today Electric Vehicles being launched in the EU must make noise. Seriously, they seem to be worried about the walking phone gazers wandering out in front of a nearly silent EV.

I find this very funny. No mention of electric bikes, scooters, etc. Or the many EV already on the road there.

Perhaps Tesla can download a fart sound generator into their vehicles. Imagine the selection of sound effects, a little Nissan Leaf decelerating to the sound of a Ferrari V12 downshifting broadcast through a set of forward facing subwoofers.
