I was crossing in front of a car at the opposite pump to mine at gas station last week and they almost ran me over. Completely silent when she started to drive away. I knew the car was there but without sound my brain just assumed it was safe to cross. I don't believe in loud pipes save lives nonsense but noise is part of our situational awareness.
