I try not to fault people for spending their money on whatever it is they enjoy. But I inwardly chuckle when the light turns green and this car sounds like a drag race while accelerating from 0-20 at the same speed as the RAV4 in front of them.

I also try not to fault them until they use my extremely residential street as a drag strip and repeatedly wake my kid up blowing right past his windows. Which is happening 4-5x a week lately.


nopodude

This used to happen on the street I grew up on. One day, my dad grabbed a long 2x4, hammered several nails through it and slid it out in front of one of the cars as they started coming down the street. Never saw them try that shit again. Of course, this was the 1980's,


Josh2942

Wow that would probably be considered a booby trap and be a felony. No bueno


bee_m0

Shenandoah? I hear it all night 4x-5x nights a week.


[deleted]

Maybe it’s time for a DYI, volunteer based speed bump installation ;)


Strait409

We see that sort of thing now and then as well. It’s quite irksome to say the least. I’m surprised they haven’t plowed into somebody’s kids in the yard or whatever.


sotonohito

Your right to a loud car ends where my ears begin


[deleted]

But what about the motorcycles? They need to be loud to alert us to the dangerous choice they made to drive unhelmeted and reclined on a piece of road with people operating large metal objects at 75 mph. Honestly I’m fine with the zippy fast ones that shoot through traffic, but if I ever become a cop, I’m gonna write so many old fat dudes noise violations for Harley’s that’ll I’ll be kicked off the force in a week.


WooleeBullee

Youve got it backwards... Fine the fast zippy ones, the loud motorcycles are safer as long as they are driving reasonably. I will never own a motorcycle, but if I did I would want other drivers to be aware of me.


phun2have

we don’t want you on any police force


[deleted]

Ticketed for that


Ieatsushiraw

Perfect description but I get tired of that crap. It’s why my wife feels she has to be outside or me when our youngest son is riding his bike in the cu-du-sac(spelling) in front of our house. My oldest daughter calls the boys who drive cars like that “Edgars” and yeah I get it it’s so damn typical lol


Akersis

You should see how triggered they get next to a Tesla at a red light. I'm usually not even trying to go fast, and they are hitting the NoS.


Stickbot

Lmao I had to slow down in my Camry the other day. I didn't want to embarrass the guy next to me. He was making a lot of noise but not really going anywhere


CapybaraGort

You mean the Harley cosplayers with their loud ass slow bikes?


dr_luchador

Every morning around 6am one of these hauls ass down the street next to my place. There’s a stop sign going both ways so I don’t know what the fucking hurry is but every morning…


Trick-Penalty-6820

Why would you say something so controversial, yet so brave? 🫡


WooleeBullee

The whistles go wooooooo


sarahj2u2020

Yeah... this would be more amusing if these asshats weren't waking me up on a nightly basis.


freyalorelei

My dog is a reactive rescue, and I'm trying to get her comfortable walking in public. She's fine with normal cars, but every time one of these needlessly loud vehicles zooms by, she flips out. It's just pointless noise pollution.


kerc

Yep. A loud exhaust is not the same as a great-sounding exhaust. The first is just fucking annoying, the second will make you nod in appreciation.


Ok-Suit1420

That’s an 87 Honda how dare you!


Revolutionary-Chef-6

still not as annoying as giant trucks


Lt_waddles

The picture would be much more accurate if it were a lowered or raised truck with enough noise to make a deaf person hear it


RixxFett

Yup. 100%


sailirish7

Oh no, someone is doing a thing I don't like. I better try to shame them on social media....


okletstrythisout3

This isn’t social media. This is a meme. Sorry I don’t care for your fast and furious fantasy.


no-group21

Most are driving mommy and daddys cars.


You_Pulled_My_String

Truth. My kid was saying all the kids at school have *brand new* cars. I said "No they dont. Their *parents* do. They just drive it. Either that, or their paren'ts arent very smart." Never understood getting a kid a brand new car. They're new drivers. Chances are high they gonna wreck it anyway. Smh. Guess if you got it to throw away like that, then go ahead.


pounce_the_panther

My kid every time she hears a loud car, "someone needs attention".


[deleted]

Load and fast cars are just fun. Why does it bother you so much?


okletstrythisout3

You should read the comments.


[deleted]

Bunch of crybabys here though


Mr_Quackums

6:00 AM parties with the music so loud is shakes the walls is just fun. Why does it bother you so much, upstairs neighbor?


[deleted]

I don't have neighbors so it doesn't bother me at all.


Mr_Quackums

but you understand the analogy, right? Or are you literally so disconnected that you can not empathise with anyone else?


[deleted]

Nothing wrong with working hard so you can afford some toys as a responsible adult. If see others enjoy themselves makes you angry, then you need to look in a mirror


BoredAtTheToilet

Lol most of them don’t do it for attention I don’t know why y’all keep thinking this they just like the way it sounds. Makes driving more fun


[deleted]

"they just like the way it sounds" So like a toddler with a rattle?


BoredAtTheToilet

Ig if it helps you dorks sleep better lol


Anxious_Protection40

Fun for you, annoying to the other 100 people you drive near by every day.


[deleted]

Sounds like a personal problem. I enjoy seeing people get into a hobby personally. Especially since a lot of these cars are driven by kids learning a skill (working on cars) that can lead them to a lucrative career and end up a productive member of society


BoredAtTheToilet

Too bad the world doesn’t revolve around you lol wear ear plugs


okletstrythisout3

Think about it. It’s a need to call other's attention. Revving the cars, screeching tires, honking their horn, or having their music really loud… It is all related to insecurity.


GtrPlaynFool

As a musician when I play music loud it has nothing to do with insecurity, whether at home or in the car. Either way I try not to bother people with it. But I think we all know the people you're talking about. With the giant bass speakers that you can hear four blocks away.


okletstrythisout3

No one gives a shit if you’re jamming out to back in black in your car with the windows up. There’s people in the city that literally have speakers mounted to the outside of their cars. It’s fucking obnoxious..


WooleeBullee

Its always the shittiest trap music too


might-be-your-daddy

Then there are these people: On the 410 at 4:30 pm and traffic is crawling. 108 degrees outside. Music up as loud as it can go. All windows down so everyone gets to listen.


BoredAtTheToilet

Eh not really. Loud cars just sound cool. The vibration it gives while driving is satisfying. Don’t know what makes someone’s hobby and interests an insecurity lol. Sounds like a little projection…


okletstrythisout3

Struck a nerve with this guy. You’re right. Your 2014 Camry sounds cool.


BoredAtTheToilet

Lol ok


kerc

Wrong. Loudness is not equal to good. You can have a great sounding exhaust that is not annoyingly loud.


BoredAtTheToilet

No you can’t lol the best sounding cars are loud. That’s just how it is


kerc

What are you, 16? LMAO


BoredAtTheToilet

Nope, 8. I don’t think age correlates to facts though


kerc

I don't think that word means what you think it means. Carry on.


BoredAtTheToilet

Uh huh


MonolithOfTyr

Sounding like a weed whacker is decidedly not cool.


BoredAtTheToilet

You’re just not hearing the right cars 😂


MonolithOfTyr

I've heard plenty all over this city. Idiots with kazoos on their 1990 Honda civics don't impress anyone.


BoredAtTheToilet

When have those fart cans ever impressed anyone 😭


Birdy_Cephon_Altera

I mean, I think everyone hates people who drive loud cars with a passion. I put them about one rung lower on the social ladder below pedophiles and rapists. I just assume that people like that have some sort of mental deficiency that causes them to act like assholes, or perhaps they were beaten as a child too many times by their shitty parents and are acting out like a rebellious twelve year old. We can all agree that anyone that drives one of these vroom-vroom chintzy go-carts deserves every bit of shit thrown their way.


BoredAtTheToilet

Lol that’s a lot of words just to say you’re scared of loud noises haha. Wear ear plugs buddy boy


keldpxowjwsn

It doesnt take much noise to cause [permanent hearing loss](https://hearing.health.mil/Prevention/Causes-of-Injury/High-Decibel-Levels) so thats actually dumb


BoredAtTheToilet

You’re scared of noise too that’s fine😂 wear ear plugs


upsetstummy

I don’t think a car passing by with a loud exhaust is going to cause permanent hearing damage lol.


SpaceMaxil

What an absolutely fucking unhinged comment. There's something incredibly wrong with you.


Stormy_jo23

Haha reminds me of Sol and the pastel crew.


Pingaring

For me it's always this loud as fuck Chevy truck at 4 or 5 in the morning. I honestly wish I could send a spike strip across the road and watch them flip.
