I think it was in, "Internal Combustion" by Edwin Black, that I read, in the very early days of ICE vehicles it was the law that a man with a flag had to walk in front of the vehicle to warn the folks using horses.

Go the whole hog and get a man with a flag walking in front?

My brother got a brand new Prius, and the first thing I noticed is a quite
loud backup alarm. I like that I can turn the noise off on my 2011 Leaf.
Nissan should have kept that option.

Yes, there's no need to limit this kind of law to only one kind of

Require that _all_ cars have a minimum dB level, including the many
nearly silent luxury cars.

There are plenty of nearly silent ICE luxury cars. It will kill the
legislation if you extend it to those nearly silent luxury models.
I can hear the howls of protest (many dBs) that will erupt when you
put the stupid noisemakers on the high-end Benz, Caddy's, etc.
