DC banned gas powered leaf blowers, that finally went onto effect over the new year. It's great!! Your city can to. It's super.
Someone woke me up this week with a gas leaf blower & I didnt quite drag myself dowm there to give him a verbal warning. But I will be doing that soon, I think!
I wish DC would enforce noise pollution against cars. I live on a particilarly bad street, to the point where I somewhat deserve it, but it's still a tiny residential street. People just love tearing up the streets & dosrupting neighbors after a long long night. I dont even know if we have laws against it, but there's definitely no enforcement. Automated systems sound lovely.
They dont tend to be super late night, but DC also has swarms of dirtbikes/atv's, loud as heck, and the police officially are not to respond, are told to do nothing, for passerby & rider safety. We should definitely do something about the cars but, & we do nothing, but it's notable to me that civil behavior is generally unenforceable, at least as it appears now.
