Cars and Traffic

Eerily Quiet

You can hear every vehicle.

Dump trucks: “Grrrrrrrrr.”

Motorcycles: “Vroooooom.”

Even bicycles: “Ring ring.”

You can hear vehicle in LA right before it hits you — but you hear it, so you jump out of the way.

EXCEPT THE TOYOTA PRIUS.

This is the sound you will hear before a Toyota Prius it sneaks up behind you and scares the heck out of you.

“………………………………………..”

The Prius is too quiet. Any sound will help.

How about “A-ooga! A-ooga!”

Or…

“Oo-wee-oo! Oo-wee-oo!”

Anything.

Please, Toyota, this car is way too quiet. It’s making me paranoid.
