> Trucks and buses going over speed bumps, now that's much more annoying road noise (when there's a speed bump on a moderately busy road just outside your bedroom window) This gives me nightmares about my last apartment. Not even the same situation, but the specific nature of this reminds me that you don't even know what's going to be a bad situation until it happens. I lived next to a road that did not appear to be busy and had a 35 mph speed limit when visiting. That road turned into a major artery for people going to and from work during morning and afternoon rush hour, with most drivers going closer to 45 - 50 mph. My window didn't even face the road, but the constant doppler shift sounds of the cars echoed down the alleyway into my bedroom window. I started to hate that sound. Pedestrians also crossed that street frequently, and I'd occasionally hear car crashes if I was working from home. It always happened from someone stopping short to avoid killing a pedestrian, and the car behind that car rearending it. I thought I'd learned my lesson after living directly on a busy street. That was even worse. People would constantly honk in the right lane because the car at the front of that lane would be turning right, but might have to wait for a pedestrian. It was infuriating. They're several cars back in the right lane and can't see what's going on so they have to assume the person at the front of the lane must be asleep at the wheel, so they honk. I wanted to get out there are inflict corporal punishment on anyone who honked.
