Heh, or Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries."
Let's keep air pollution to a minimum in all senses, eh? Oh for a
world without combustion engine noises! We of all people should be
able to appreciate it.
At low speeds probably the noise of the tires on the asphalt and the
buzzing and whirring of the mechanical parts in the engine is enough,
coupled with proper education of drivers and pedestrians and the
judicious use of a klaxon. Utopian much? :-/
