> People are so unbelievably disrespectful with noise in the US

What stroke me the most during my trip to the US (Chicago) was:

- the constant police sirens

- the fact that cars come with a feature that allows you to find them with their key by making them honk. Here it is forbidden to honk in cities (though people do it all the time, sigh).

Equally awesome is a beepy, late-shift neighbor who's driveway is right by your bedroom window.
