I used to live on third Street in SF and quite regularly a huge swarm of insanely loud motorbikes would come by. We'd have to stop talking or rewind the movie we were watching, even with the window closed. With the window open it's literally painful. And that was likely not only impacting the entire building but hundreds of people who live on that street. All so that a bunch of man children can get attention. I can only some that it's a reflection of a general attitude in which they either don't care about the impact of their action on others or are completely oblivious. Either way, it's a poisonous attitude that we don't need in our society and should be punished accordingly.

Edit: why is it important to understand car enthusiasts? I don't understand people who are enthusiastic about fucking children either. I don't need to understand everyone's enthusiasm, especially if it's actively harmful.
