[QUOTE="geolemon, post: 266321, member: 547749"] That's not it at all.. they certainly aren't waiting until they are just in front of MY house then turning it up for 15 seconds... I'm planted far enough into the suburbs that it's a few minutes of driving just to get to a street without stop signs, with stoplights and actual traffic... So if they are blazing by at 140+dB, they've driven by a LOT of houses, disturbing a LOT of people, for a LONG time. It's just a matter of consideration. It's not very much different than if you took a Quad down the sidewalk and refused to either slow down or get out of anyone's way who was also on the sidewalk, as if you felt entitled to the sidewalk, that you owned it... Pedestrians, couples out for a peaceful walk, mothers with children in strollers, schoolkids in bicycles.. just running over, slamming into, or knocking down anyone and anything in your way without a comment. Is it really much different? At any rate, I'm sure if you were driving anything - or even walking - down a sidewalk, you'd be considerate of people, giving oncoming traffic their side, generally being considerate. I'm just hoping that people would want to show the same consideration for others, particularly during the evening hours. If you don't consider the respect of those people, consider the respect of your fellow car audio enthusiasts... consider the possibility that your actions would otherwise do nothing but contribute to complaints, and potentially noise regulations, crackdowns, and other things that are bad for being an enthusiast in your area!
