Big stink in the Netherlands about the dangers of electric bikes.
Apparently they are too quiet and are startling people as they go by.
Dominos Pizza has come up with a novel solution to this dilemma.

Just saw this.  Cracker idea!

As hybrid cars become more pervasive I can imaging they will start offering "sound" options.
