[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 307408, member: 13254"] I was thinking about that just yesterday as I drove 25-30 mph down a caliche packed road packed as hard as cement and rough as a washboard. The noise is loud enough there would be no chance to hear anything from the outside such as a train or a car/truck horn. This has to be detrimental to your hearing. On some of these trucks the noise is so loud you would have to yell to be heard if someone else was with you. I understand where UP$ is coming from, pushing for this, to prevent accidents that could prove to be costly. I wonder what the numbers so as to the number of accidents that were caused by hearing-impaired drivers. Hearing-impaired does not = deaf. [/QUOTE]
