So you are saying its ok to go bounce a basketball up and down a suburban street at 5:15am?

And its ok to park across peoples driveways?

And its fine to dump your unwanted rubbish on others front lawns?

 

Yep, im intolerant of inconsiderate morons

---

There is no law against bouncing a basketball on a public walkway, so yes, it is OK.

You live near a high school? Everyone that lives near a school experiences those parking issues. Something to take into consideration when buying a house near a school.

It took your hubby less than a minute to return the unwanted drum.

Same with the ball.

 

Move house? To one that is further back from the street.. with bedrooms at the back.

Nobody said it was against the law.

It's about good manners and consideration for others.

I don't think any cars/trucks should be allowed on the highway before 8am... they make too much noise.

It is about the law actually. If a person was breaking local noise levels then action could be taken against them.

If it isn't breaking the law, then it is OK for them to do that stuff, even though one cranky pants in the street doesn't approve of it.

actually, here in SA i was told it is against the law to disturb someones peace no matter what time of day.

I was told that by a police officer when i rang about a party music blaring at 1am a few years ago. They asked why i didnt call earlier and i said i wasnt sure what the times were that they could play music loud too. They told me if its disturbing your peace, no matter what time, you can ring the police.

but there is about motor vehicle noise.

Did I address motor vehile noise (one incident in the opening post) in that post of mine. No,  I didn't.

Must be nice to be able to sleep past 5am on a regular basis.  I've been able to do that only for the past 2 years.  50 years before that, no chance.  Had to go to work.

My OP did not mention the law at all so this thread is actually NOT about the law.

Its about "Inconsiderate or just plain rude?"

There are rude and inconsiderate people in the world who dont break the law you know.
