Noise is defined as unwanted sound. Although there are many kinds of sounds, there are some types that are especially dangerous to the health and welfare of the public.

Noise is the number one reason people move.

"Boom cars" are cars with loud stereo systems.

Boom cars emit high-intensity/low frequency sound (excessive amounts of bass). This type of sound is dangerous to health, reduces property values and highway safety, and forces law-abiding citizens to seek quieter locales.

Boom cars have been closely linked to murder, aggression, gangs, drugs, speeding, reckless driving, DUI, underage drinking, and other crimes.

It is difficult to discuss the noise produced by boom cars without considering the basic concepts of decibel and frequency levels of sound.

What are normal levels?

What are dangerous levels?

How do abnormal decibel and frequency levels affect the human body and behavior?

What a bunch of bullshit !

In addition to promoting boom cars on the highway, creating an everyday hazard to society, the boom car industry has taken this one step further. There are national and international competitions to see who can produce the loudest sound from a boom car. The boom car industry, stereo companies, and boom car owners spend THOUSANDS of dollars per automobile to get it ready for these events. The contests are called dB DRAG RACING competitions.

These events are not just "boys being boys" or "good clean fun." These competitions create death machines, due to the EXTREME intensity of sound and the ultra-low frequency levels produced.

To sit in some of these automobiles during the sound competitions would mean instant death. This type of vehicle is reinforced and highly modified to accommodate the massive amounts of amplifiers, sub-woofers, and electrical equipment. The sound produced by some of these monsters is accomplished by remote control.

Though some of these machines are not street worthy, young people who witness these competitions are inspired to go home and build their own boom car to drive on the street. Thus, even more of these hazards are on the road to be a menace to the peace and safety of society.

Boom car operators thrive on getting attention and being noticed. The more intense the decibels and the lower the frequency, the more respect and bragging rights they have over their peers.

These are a few examples of competition boom cars and the power they produce:

The Beast - a Ford Bronco owned by Alma Gates. In 2000, it had 48,000 watts of power. It was designed to pump out 175 dB. That is eight times louder than a 747. Instant death would result from it's sound if you were sitting inside of it a full power.

lol lol lol

So it sounds like we will all vibrate ourselves into nursing homes, and eventually die out. But before I go I need whizz through my neighborhood blasting obscene lyrics and dangerous bass, and set myself up to buy some prime realestate for a much reduced price. With the profits It should be enough to fund my nursing care.

I see. In all of my 14 years of home audio / car audio this is the first I have ever seen of anything like this and I just couldn't help but start a thread. My adrenaline got the best of me.
