       I just found out it's illegal to mod your EV to have custom engine noises. For "safety reasons." But realistically, how enforceable is that? If you get pulled over when your car plays a looped sample of Snoop Dogg saying "this Volt is in reverse," what's to stop you from claiming that Snoop Dogg was in the passenger seat doing live commentary, and ran off on foot?

       @mogwai_poet that's bullshit, I've been saying ever since they started doing the fake engine noises, that as soon as I get an EV that does that I'm gonna mod it to play horse clip-clop noises

       @foone Right now you can just hang a couple coconuts from your bumper but once they start enforcing that law, your off-brand noisemaker will get you thrown in jail
