    It's not just cars, this is noise in general, so loud parties by the neighbours...all is encompassed and yes @ Laffs, there is a law already in place for this but now instead of enforced discretion, they are putting an 80db limit on it, with sensors, there is already a pilot program in Edmonton that has microphones attached to traffic standards, (just like red light cameras) that are monitoring sound...

    the funny thing on lastnight's newscast was the interviews...every single person they interview was like "pff, it's no big deal, people are a bunch of whiney biches" nobody was bothered by the noise, it's to be expected in a big city...one guy even said he's lived in many big cities and Toronto's downtown is the quietest he's been in LOL

    They didn't pick up one person that had a problem with noise lastnight...

    no idea...hey where is the graph that shows my car Don?


    my highschool shop teacher always told us that our shop planner was 85dbs

    haha, actually mentioned construction being one of the contributing factors on the news lastnight...so I guess that means all construction will have to stop in Toronto, so that is good at least!! LOL

    You guys had a wimpy planer then. Our shop planer was WAY louder than that. My portable planer is louder than that (96-100 dB).

    LMFAO...just got this text from my brother after telling him about Toronto and what they want to do for noise like Edmonton had tried...


    "Ya they tried it here for a bit and I'd say less than a month they already scrapped it cause everyone used them to see who was the loudest and all of the people that lived close to them complained even more lol"

    Noisy cars be warned in TO

    80dba... yeah good luck with that.

    I rip farts louder than that!!

    I got a ticket on Queen st about 10 yrs ago for my 2 x 12” subs.. they were extremely loud. I got stopped right in front of a bar that had a live band going on a busy Saturday summer night. If memory serves me right it was just under $200. I removed the subs, took a pic of my empty trunk and didn’t pay a penny in court.
