If he had a permit and the right to be there, then this is messed up. Sometimes the truck looks too close to the intersection. I believe 25 feet is the state law. And most times this guy’s music is so loud it’s actually painful to walk past. Like so loud it’s actually physically painful. (Or am I mixing him up with someone else on that corner?)

I can see if the music was too loud or it was too close to the intersection and he was gone the cops calling the tow truck. If he was there, I would hope they would just ask him to turn it down and/or back up a bit from the stoplight. Trying to get under the bus is a weird and bad decision and probably freaked out the cops.

Buddy, it’s way too loud. I love city life. I grew up in cities. He’s blasting it way too loud and certainly against the City ordinance. I haven’t called anyone about it to complain because I’m not “fragile” but it’s still a selfish thing to be doing in public.

I've been walking that intersection all my life...and I've never thought "ciTy oRdiNancE." If anything...I end up syncing my walk to the house music. I never saw it as selfish...I saw it as adding life.

I got no problem with him playing music. But if you walk your kids past him they’re going to damage their hearing with it that loud. Living in a city means being respectful of other people because we’re all on top of each other. When you blast your music that loud you’re saying you don’t care about other people and that your preferences are more important.

Again, I’m not calling the cops on people doing that. I’m not calling the cops on people who litter. I don’t even call the cops on people I see run red lights. But they’re still selfish assholes.
