| 1482983 | 2021-12-19 06:26:00 | For me it isn’t really the noise. Some of the cars are noisy. But on Friday/sat nights about 11 they normally take off en-mass. No idea they they’re all going following each other like sheep, and the Johnny come latelys at the tail end with their **** cars that can’t keep up | psycik (12851) | ||
| 1482984 | 2021-12-19 07:36:00 | With those speakers, if the daily headaches don't put a stop to them, the deafness eventually will. I once made the mistake of staying in a crappy budget motel on Beach Rd in Auckland. Picked it because of the price, and the fact I'm chronically cheap. I failed to factor in the number of trucks that would be starting and stopping at the traffic lights outside, but that was nothing compared to the 'music'. In the early hours of the morning the carpark across the road got used for some of these cars/audio systems to show off. Cars parked, every door, hood and boot opened wide, and the audio cranked way up. Anyway, even 3 or 4 levels up in this motel the window started rattling in its frame, then some time later the door to the hallway (in the centre of the building) also started rattling in its frame. I gave up on sleep at 3am and went for a walk. There's a whole other industry comes alive between 3 and 6am, cleaning up the streets (litter, vomit, body wastes) before the public swarm the place in daylight again. |

The new trend I've noticed in the last couple of years seems to be to put horn speakers in the front bumper, so they can really project the sound outward and try to annoy people even more. Look into the bottom of the front bumper for something that looks like a megaphone, either inside the intake vents, or behind them. One can only hope that by blocking up half the airflow to their radiators, they'll blow their engines.... |

| 1482987 | 2021-12-19 20:21:00 | Apart from the noise, there's the danger to other road users and pedestrians that these a-holes risk when they're behaving like they do on public roads. I consider a dickhead screaming around the streets in their car more dangerous than someone mowing their lawn. |

| 1482989 | 2021-12-19 20:50:00 | Typically, subwoofers go in the boot. Fifty odd years ago I fitted a radio (a vibrator) into my Ford Prefect and installed the speaker under the back shelf (behind the back seat) in the boot. The speaker used the boot as a soundbox and the resulting sound was really good. Because it was a distance from the front seat I could have the radio playing and still have a conversation with the passenger. Quite a few people remarked on how well it sounded. I was well pleased.:) |

| 1482991 | 2021-12-19 23:39:00 | I agree with the comments about attention seeking. I refer to such drivers as "guy's with short dicks " and trying to compensate in other ways. I deliberately do not look up if such a vehicle drives past | Neil F (14248) | ||
