i drove sweepers for years i don't think he would have heard them without the headphones anyways..when the vacuum is going you cant hear shit and those brushes double the noise...pretty much the only time you use the brushes is when edging and the driver should have been looking in his mirror to make sure the brush was hitting the edge but not actually bashing the curb (cause that would fuck up the brush and ruin it) also when people and animals are close you are sposed to stop the brush for dust and safety reasons such as this...sounds like the dude was just hauling ass, not paying attention, and not following safe operating procedures as most drivers i know and worked with
