    90 decibels is about as loud as a truck driving past or a (legal, not stupid noisy) motorcycle from 4-5 metres away at 70% rpm.

    If they’re more than 500 metres away this would be a slight annoyance at worst.

    Yeah, but a motorcycle won’t drive past you non-stop and 24/7.

      People have lived with noise pollution before.
