    I say go with B, stay away from the high pitched whine. At least B is a bit ocean-like.

    They are all too high-pitched. For those of us with sensitive hearing, high-pitched sounds like whistling are painful to our ears. I am glad you are not considering beeps or bells. Engine noises are better, but lower the pitch.

    If the intention is genuinely to make the cars safer then it should make a sound like a conventional car. These sounds might be fun but they will not be instantly recognised as a car that needs to be avoided, and that delay could be enough to fail to prevent an accident.

    This one's the best because it's not so high pitched as the others. I still think they could do better but for now this one wins my approval.
