There is a common argument on whether or not the government should impose a regulation regarding the limit of noises an individual is allowed to make to reduce the distraction it causes to the society. In this case, there are several benefits and drawbacks that emerge from the implementation of this policy.
To begin with, some parties would argue that focusing on making rules to manage the limitation in the amount of noise someone can make is not crucial. There are other urgent problems in the nation that require more attention from the authorities than just controlling noise reduction. Moreover, in some cultures playing music loudly is part of local culture that needs to be preserved and that is the way people enjoy their lives in which the implementation of this regulation would contradict the local values. Therefore, some believe that it is better to spend time working to amend the law to reduce crime cases rather than make a policy to control noise which is only on certain occasions.
Having said that, the citizens’ well-being should also be taken into consideration by the government. One of the purposes of creating a law is to ensure the society’s prosperity, including to keep the peace within the communities. In some countries, playing loud music is part of the modern culture which sometimes brings negative impacts to the surroundings. For instance, in my country, there is this culture of playing music loudly by putting a stack of speakers on a truck and going around the neighborhood and it disturb many people especially the babies and elderly, some people also experience the loss of properties such as their windows and ceilings are broken due to pressure of the loud music. Thus, enforcing a strict law to regulate noise reductions is crucial to fulfill the right of people to live peacefully.
All in all, even though creating a loud noise is not an unlawful behavior, it can harm the society in certain ways such as causing disturbance and damage the properties. Thus, I firmly believe that there should be an action taken by the officials to tighten a policy in order to avert the drawbacks.
