Car noises and lack of respect

When you live in a high destiny living area it can be a challenge to deal with all the various car sounds that we deal with. Some of the noises we deal with are just cars trying to speed around the corner that is near our unit so it can get noisy.

Something else that we have been dealing with is cars that seem to be doing almost back firing which means it can be extremely loud. Some of the sounds can also been interrupted as gun shots which we have always heard around here. I know that these cars are just mistuned cars, but it can get a little much when you hear that constantly from around 3 pm until at least 10 pm. I have checked into this issue and of course bylaw enforcement says you need to have the license plate for each of the cars. When you live 10 floors up and you cannot identify which of three cars is making the noise it is rather difficult to get a license plate.

Something else that is happening is that cars don’t seem to understand that when there is a school bus with flashing lights you are not allowed to pass it in either direction. So often we hear horns either because the bus isn’t moving quickly enough or someone is trying to pass the school bus and disobeying the laws.

The other challenge that we have been watching is cars trying to pass another car within the curve that is right by apartment building. There isn’t an extra line for cars to pass and especially even it is in a curse in the road. We have been amazing that there haven’t been any head-on accidents with cars trying to pass another car in the curve. The other thing is this curve is also the entrance to another apartment building so cars cut the curve tight so that they can get into the apartment driveway.

Living in a high destiny area can be a challenge and when you are on the road you must be so careful because of the other cars that are speeding around. It can be such a challenge to even drive out of the apartment building driveway because you never know when a car is going to appear out of no where and do something stupid.

Understanding and respecting the rules of the road can be a challenge and making sure that your car is also tuned correctly is important. If your car is making lots of noises when you accelerate maybe it’s time you get it checked because you might enjoy the sound it is making but think of everyone else that has to deal with that sound and what effect that sound has on them.
