While I agree that intermmitent noise can be disturbing, and often even startling, constant noise can be a never-ending, even painful and exhausting problem. Ask someone with tinnitus.
As for the comments about the turnpike, could just be wanting to participate in an open conversation and not really trying to empart any earth shatering revelation.
