I'm gonna say they probably don't care if it's between say 8 am and 8 pm. Yeah there are noise ordinances in most towns, but cops rarely enforce them. I've had to call the cops on my neighbors twice already for playing music and being loud well past a respectable hour.

I mean if people are just driving by and you hear it for like 5 seconds I doubt the cops are going to increase patrols for that, and even if they do how many people are really going to get caught. I know I don't have the loudest system in my car, but I'm programmed to hit the mute button if I see a cop and then when they pass put it back up.

Sucks but I don't think there is much you can do short of being the old fuddy duddy that sets up a community watch and starts yelling at people who do it and taking down license plates and filing complaints.
