I think they are trying to hit you…put down your phone and walk.  Think, think again….just think.

THREE TIMES IN TWO WEEKS, I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT AS PEDESTRIAN BY AN EV. THEY MAKE NO NOISE AT LOW SPEEDS AND YOU’D BE SURPRISED HOW MUCH YOU RELY ON HEARING IN A PARKING LOT FOR OF OTHER WISE PARKED (AND SILENT) CARS TO DETERMINE WHICH CARS TO LOOK OUT FOR.
