Subject: Federal Register-public comment invited on Minimum Sound
Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles

 

Dear DORS-BESB staff and community partners,

 

I wanted to bring your attention to a Federal Register notice seeking public
comment relative to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards for Minimum
Sound Requirements for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles. The concern over
pedestrian safety resulting from hybrid and electric vehicles that emit
little to no sound led to the Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Act of 2010,
whereby the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration was
charged with making recommendations for the enhancement of pedestrian safety
relative to these types of vehicles. Below is a link to the Federal Register
notice where their recommendations are found, inviting public comment. The
recommendation involves equipping these quiet vehicles with audible sound
features. The public comment period lasts until March 15, 2013. There is a
link on their main page where you may directly submit your comments. A link
to the 87 comments posted so far can also be found through the link that is
pasted in below.
