Would you 55+ people with loud pipes please grow up.
We have friends that live near the gate in TV, and when those loud vehicle's stop at the gate and take off, their windows rattle,
with no respect to people.
There is water pollution, air pollution, and noise pollution.

Sorry, but loud pipes on a motorcycle is just plain self-defense and common sense when living around such dangerous OLD drivers that can't see or hear. My old Harley used to set off car alarms on a narrow residential street, so I used to have to coast down the street, when going home. BUT, the loud noise of me driving in a blind spot while passing probably saved my life hundreds of times. If folks find a few seconds of unpleasant noise on occasion unbearable, perhaps they should just remove their hearing aids.
It is unfortunate that people are living longer than ever today. They seem to have over lived their comfort zone(?) and now must be so bored that they have to spend their last miserable days complaining about every trivial mote of irritation.
On my street, just about every day of the week I will hear lawn equipment for about 15mins during the day. Most of the time, I do not even notice it. Twice a week, I hear the trash pickup trucks in the morning. Maybe we should demand that they quit picking up because they might disturb someone's sleep? No one complains about their trash being removed, but they sure complain about someone ELSE'S lawn being mowed.
Lets be clear. The neighborhood can be noisy EVERYday, during the day. There are night noise restrictions. Sleep at night and you won't have to be concerned about someone doing their job to support their families in your neighborhood during the day. I would rather hear a bit a daily noise than worry about someone SILENTLY sneaking around, breaking into homes and stealing. But, that is another subject.
