noise has become a much worse problem in recent years. My condo is off a relatively busy road. No issues at all in my first 2 years living there. Now I get woken up in the middle of the night with my heart racing. Really unhealthy way to live. Your body thinks it's in danger and releases stress hormones.



And I think you just hit on the real issue, and that’s complete and utter selfishness that puts itself above everyone else on planet earth. That’s why it’s so ugly. Because it is. None of them think of older people, or people with heart conditions, or conditions that this really aggravates, especially at night. Nah…. ONLY Them. They are the only ones on planet earth that matter.

Car exhaust and truck Jake brakes are nothing compared to a trio of airboats coming by at 2 AM on the river.

In a fully libertarian paradigm, the roads would be privately owned and managed

Yeah, very stupid concept. The system of roads and tolls would be unworkable without public money and eminent domain. Plus, we would have been conquered in the early 20th century without a national military.

I was a kid once and enjoyed my 1996 straight piped 350 vortec chevrolet.

As an adult I would never though. I like my normal sounding truck. To me it would be embarrassing to have that these days.

That’s a separate argument, which I’m happy to have, but again is separate and apart from the accusation that “libertarian” means everyone gets to be as annoying as they want to

And as a Minarchist, I have no objection to a national military. My Ancap friends would feel differently, obviously.

All of the libertarians I know irl are professionals, and if they use marijuana, it’s not significant enough to notice.

And as for “good in theory”, have you walked around this motherfricker lately? Because “representative democracy” doesn’t seem to be working all that great in practice, either

Because you live in an area filled with assholes with low IQ's and tiny peckers. Not much you can do about it other than move, they think that the more noise they make establishes dominance, and I don't mean intellectual.

I read this thread and the jacklegs who are saying you are out of touch are just dummies to the situation.

This is a new issue (two years) prompted by the car manufacturers seeing a market (loud cars) and buyers lapping it up.

The problem is: there are different drivers doing this early in the morning, late at night, during the day such that it is a constant noise to the nearby residents in BR. They are too cheap to go to a track, so they peel out on Siegen, Perkins, Airline, etc and then run from the cops and do it someplace else.

I think the only solution is to vote for council members who come up with creative solutions. What is that? I dunno. Maybe having cops measure sound levels and ticketing noise violations until these dregs go elsewhere or their car is impounded.

And yes, it is a “minor” nuisance in the grand scheme of this crime addled city, but it is a big detriment to quality of life of homeowners just looking for some peace.

Oh, and a gratuitous…

I feel your pain. One of my neighbors kid has a buddy that drives a newer 2500 that’s squatted with 20 or 22” rims and the pipes are huge. You can hear this truck miles away. My house is a corner lot in the neighborhood. I generally can’t hear it to bad inside but if you are outside it’s freakin loud. One night past midnight he was leaving the neighborhood and he burned the tires and woke us up. I’m going to burn that truck down one night.

I just throw out a wish for them to blow it up whenever they drive past the house.

Those vehicles make more racket than the big rigs rolling by.
