Why do people play banging dance music at full volume in the cars? i don't wanna hear it and i'm sure most others going about there business don't wanna hear it.

Now if you played some Bowie or some Rolling Stones or anything that has a tune it might not be so bad.

Nothing wrong with loud music in cars and it's their car, so they can do as they please - providing it's good music and not a chav. Sometimes loud music is needed, the chav stuff defintly isn't!

What I don't like is chav dance music and bass from a 'pimped' up car complete with massive spoiler, two exhausts, expensive sports typres, with massive rims, low seats and yes a young lad driving the car, revving it up at traffic lights, tailgaiting and trying to do stupid speeds in heavy traffic! It just screams CHAV and is a real turn off, not a good look at all and it certainly isn't cool!

I don't mind it as long as it's not done by chavs. Even better if they play something I like

I would hate to hear someone blasting Adele or some other 'in' artist out of their family people carriers while leaving the kids to school.

It's the same issue when your next door neighbour plays their drug-friendly techno-dance noise at extra bass volume so you can hear it through the walls.I can't understand why people have to play their music so loud so folk outside thier personal space can hear it.
Ironically, I used to be a DJ,for 15 years,but now I'm one of these people who feel uncomfortable playing any music from my I-tunes library above a certain volume.For me my music is best listened to as 'barely audible background noise' while I'm at the computer.
Maybe people who play loud music either have a hearing problem,pent-up angst,have a drug habit..or can't afford headphones.

Nothing wrong with modifying a car at all, as long as it's not done the chav way. Modified sounds systems are good, tyres can be good, two exhausts are no,no (imo) and some spoilers are ok, massive chav ones, are not.

Chav modifying is completely different from modifying for aesthetic appeal and improvements in quality.

I don't mind music in passing cars at all unless it's unreasonably loud and everyone in the street can hear it - basically, when it's clear that they deliberately want you to hear it. That's just arrogant.

Whilst it's easy to generalise, this is one case where I would say the odds are stacked in favour of the likelihood being that loud music coming from a car is typically...


...chav dance music and bass from a 'pimped' up car complete with massive spoiler, two exhausts, expensive sports typres, with massive rims, low seats and yes a young lad driving the car, revving it up at traffic lights, tailgaiting and trying to do stupid speeds in heavy traffic! ...
I agree with Dare Devil. I seriously think a lot of these such young lads are completely oblivious to how a number of people will automatically perceive them to be chavs when they do just as Dare Devil described. Perhaps they don't care but I expect the majority of them would get pretty angry about being called a chav.

You're not the only one and your comments about not being able to afford headphones etc. were hilarious. I wasn't a DJ for 15 years (didn't have the patience) but likewise I don't feel comfortable playing music that loudly. Mind you when I did DJ I never had a complaint about the music being too loud, which must be a rarity! I knew a guy who was let go from a club for basically blowing nearly all of their speakers.

One of my other pet hates is excessively distorted sound coming from speakers. I'd say about 8 times out of 10 that's the case with these eejits who drive around blaring the latest rubbish that sounds like something Scooter would have released.

Ok I see what you mean, airplane spoilers aint cool..but twin exhausts..seriously..chavy? Some engines have gotta have 2 of them, heck some need 4 lol.
