Does anyone know the decibel level of the noise made by a car at 60 mph? It's quite loud (from outside the car). Stop on a freeway someday and listen. I'd be willing to bet there are a few folks whizzing by who would protest such a noise yet are unaware that they are often equally guilty. I'd like to know the number if anyone has it.
