Abstract
A vehicle warning sound emitting apparatus includes a warning sound emitting component and a controller. The warning sound emitting component selectively emits a warning sound that is audible outside of the vehicle. The controller controls the warning sound emitting component to emit the warning sound during a prescribed period that an engine sound is being emitted from an engine of the vehicle such that the engine sound and the warning sound are audible at a location outside the vehicle during the prescribed period when the controller is controlling the warning sound emitting component to switch between emitting the warning sound and refraining from emitting the warning sound based on a vehicle traveling condition.
