soo.. my neighbors
so i work on my truck.. behind the gates of my house in my driveway.. infront of my garage.. under my car-port..
so yes.. my truck is loud.. its a 6.0 straight piped right now..
i have to turn it on to work on it.. since im working on the radiator and cooling system..
well now to my neighbor part..
he moans and bitches.. and yells at me.. given im only 22years old in the sfv.. and hes like a 40 year old man who just stays home all day..
he recently keeps threatening me about calling the cops and shi***..
i turn off the truck.. cause i really dont wanna get my parents all mad at me too for starting trouble.. then again.. we have never gotten along with those neighbors anyways.
QUESTION:
1. should i be scared if he really decides to call the cops? what can they really do for me working on a loud truck at 12 in the afternoon.
** thanks for your help guys..

They can't really do anything because your working on your truck, but if they get enough calls about you/your loud truck they might setup a little sting to catch you driving it. They'll ticket you for loud exhaust..etc
Happened to my brother in Moreno Valley about 4 years ago. We got threatening letters from our neighbor/s about our loud exhausts.One month later two cops were waiting in the corner at night, we lived in a cul de sac. Pulled him over, popped his hood, searched his car and ticketed him for his exhaust.

well the truck wont be in the street till late january.. and it will have a big exhaust since i do have a cut-out for the turbo..
but i dont see why i would get a "disturbing the peace" ticket since it is Private Property.. and its in the fkn afternoon !!
i do see gettin checked by cops around the corner like your bro did.. but i dont see that as a problem.. i live next to a park, a middle school about 2 blocks away.. and the new elementary school across the street should be done by next spring.. so im used to having cops around..
i just want someone to go tell him to stfu

Disturbing the peace law doesnt take effect until after 10pm and since its 12 noon when your working on it then it doesnt apply to you, rev the biotch as loud as you can and let him **** and moan all he wants..

^ thats not true you can disturb the peace at anytime of the day... easiest thing to do is talk to the guy that is bothered and ask when is a good time to work on your truck and at least you tried. When the cops come explain that your working on your car and you tried to talk to him about it and they will usually just right it off...

yea cant do anything. If he calls Lapd they wont even dispatch that radio call. He would have to go to the housing authority and try to make a complaint saying you are a auto shop or some bs like that.

They can ticket you for noise ordinance - citation for loud exhaust. I would just try and keep it down if you can for your parents sake but every now and then rev her up just to let him know your there. lol

He really cant do anything. You are working on it during reasonable hours. If you start revving it up to intentionally **** him off things will likely escalate. If hes going to be an *** about it just ignore it. Ive always had good luck where I have lived, ofcourse neither of my cars are running right now but they will both be very loud so I guess ill find out.

1) I don't know what laws apply in CA but yes... I live in MI
2) If an officer gets a call with a complaint on a loud vehicles exhaust they have grounds to look under the vehicle - (to see if catted or not) They can check your plate see the vehicle is registered for street use and give you a warning or issue a ticket for violating EPA regulations. He says straight pipes - I just assume catless but if he has them, no worries.
3) Again, I am not familiar with CA laws but I am pretty sure they are BIG on their laws with pollution.
I simply suggested he keep it down just to save his parents some grief from the neighbor that's being a jerk.

Tell him to go **** himself. Too bad for him that you're disrupting his **** watching in the middle of the day. You probably disrupted his rhythm, which he needs with his limp dick.
Tell him to worry about something important, like getting a job. Tell him you'll turn off the motor when he actually lands a phone interview.

I have an issue going on right now. I got a modified exhaust ticket on my own driveway. I turned it on to warm it up, and got out to open the gate. An officer drives by, does a U-turn and flips his lights on. At this point, nobody is in the car and its sitting on private property. So I'm curious to know if that is legal what he did?
