It’s not every day someone is fined $15k for a hobby. Well, car enthusiasts have experienced both ends of the whip, falling out with the cops, other motorists, and even neighbors. In Carlsbad, California, a BMW owner found themselves in this kind of predicament after his neighbors sued him for risky driving and a loud exhaust.

Usually, HOA (Home Owners Association) deals with this kind of complaint, but when there’s none, individuals get sued.

Bryan Hillman, also @staticb1tch on Instagram and Twitter, is getting sued by two of his neighbors for reckless driving and having a loud exhaust. They claim he has breached their quiet enjoyment of their homes for years.

Hillman Shared the Lawsuits on his Twitter Handle

Hillman shared a portion of the lawsuits on Twitter, revealing two suits; one asking for $5,000 in damages and the other $10,000. Both lawsuits claim the BMW owner’s recklessness has been happening for years, with one citing verbal abuse.

Looking through Hillman's initial tweets shows Hillman doing a smokey powerslide. It has since been removed. Hillman has not denied the claims. However, he commented through his Twitter handle, attached with images of the documents.

California Civil Code has Reservations on Noise Disturbances

The California Civil Code allows homeowners and tenants the right to quiet enjoyment in their homes. This includes tenacious disturbances such as loud music from parties or barking from dogs.

Simply put, the documents claim that Hitman allegedly drives recklessly outside his mother’s premises in a car that has a loud exhaust. It also states that he has verbally abused his neighbors, and his mother is doing nothing about it.

The other claim by the second neighbor suing for $5,000 also alleges similar disturbances as the first. Hillman has a couple of videos on his Instagram page showing his exploits that could potentially support his neighbors' grievances.

San Diego County, which happens to be Carlsbad, where Hillman lives, has specific regulations against impulsive noise. This regulation states that “no person shall produce or cause to be produced an impulsive noise that exceeds the maximum sound level [82 db] measured at the boundary line of the property where the noise is received.”

If Hillman is driving recklessly and being unrealistic about revving his BMW engine like stated in the documents, it might pass as a disruptive nuisance. A judge will have to decide what action needs to be taken. Let’s hope Hillman and his neighbors resolve this peacefully.
