Just had a ridiculously loud Harley zoom past. I thought there were noise limits on cars and bikes, but I suspect they are never really enforced. This thing was louder than truck air brakes, was verging on painful as it went by. The riders of these bikes must surely be deaf after regular exposures.
@SituationCake@CEOofmyhouse56 They are enforced. Just not frequently enough and they aren’t harsh enough that everyone thinks it is worth avoiding them.

They’re in front of the pipes and have helmets covering their ears. It’s not as loud for them.
