it doesnt happen for cars much, but it can be enforced. people can have their cars confiscated for street racing too.
its about the environment people live in.
if you read closely you will see that they had a team from a govt. dept come and measure the noise. they have to do this 3 times to prove a persistent problem.
you cant just call up and say "such and such is playing loud music" they have to come out, maybe weeks after you call.
are you telling me that in the US if someone moves in next to you and plays loud music all day and all night that you can't do anything about it?... apart from move?
