Reply to comment by degggendorf in A team of people studying noise pollution in Providence says the city is inordinately loud for its size – a problem that impacts public health as well as the environment. by GoxBoxSocks

Your body can't tell the difference between sounds but the ability to stop one via making a complaint with the license plate number and not having any recourse means the low constant hum is going to be more problematic.

Once an hour would be considered consistent. Again, read up on how long damage takes to occur. Noise happens, its the constant or consistent sound that needs to be dealt with.

Is your solution having more police or is there some magic solution to enforcing a law already on the book?

Has that worked for you?

Not more police, better managed police. Get them out of their paramilitary training camps and back to doing the work that actually helps the people.

"back to doing work that helps people" LOL like the police have ever helped anyone.

But lets have them pull over more people because clearly more police interaction is the solution to noise pollution .

Okay I think this conversation has run its course; now it feels like you're just arguing about anything, maybe to distract from your initial claim you've been able to provide zero scientific (let alone, logical) support for, and I'm not really interesting what you're talking about now.
