A MARTINEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martinez. The Tesla Boombox feature allows drivers to play custom pre-recorded sounds in place of the car's typical horn. One of those sounds was a fart noise, meaning you could replace your car's honk-honk with a toot-toot, at least until recently. Federal regulators determined the feature could actually increase the chance of a collision. Tesla will now disable the fart feature for cars that are in motion. But I'm confused because I thought Teslas don't have gas in them. So what gives? It's MORNING EDITION.

早上好我是马丁内兹。特斯拉Boombox功能允许驾驶员播放定制的预先录制的声音，以代替汽车的典型喇叭。其中一个声音是放屁声，这意味着你可以用嘟嘟声代替汽车的喇叭声，至少直到最近。联邦监管机构确定，该功能实际上可能会增加碰撞的可能性。特斯拉现在将禁用正在行驶的汽车的放屁功能。但我很困惑，因为我认为Teslas没有汽油。那又有什么呢？这是早上版。
