"Hi all, could anyone please advise how to tackle this situation. My neighbour are good people but their sons car are very loud. There is so much base that I feel the sound on my bed in night Time. Our little one is due in 3 months. I’m worried about this situation."
And one popular response: "Just the reality of people living their lives..."
What I find interesting is that despite the rise of social media and the endless social-shaming that it enables, obnoxious behaviour doesn't seem to carry the same stigma that it once did. Related to this seems to be the conflation of what is legal and what is ethical (i.e. if it isn't illegal it is fine).
When I was a teenager with a loud car I’d kill the engine when I turned off the main road and rolled down to my parents house to not annoy the neighbours if it was late at night.
When leaving at unsocial hours i’d do the same - roll down the road until I was away from the houses and then start the car.
Some people just have zero awareness or empathy for their impact on other people.
The main road was rediculously loud to begin with and there is a big difference between cruising past at 2000rpm and 70km/hr and coming down a residential street at 30km/h.
Not the majority I know, but for many, thinking of others has taken a far back seat to everyone's supposed god-given rights to express themselves. It's defended like a cult by so many.
