Residents along the Woodward corridor are dealing with excessively loud cars, a problem that starts months before the Woodward Dream Cruise. This issue affects multiple municipalities, with Royal Oak being particularly impacted. The prolonged noise is a significant concern for locals.

Lieutenant Jordan Kobernick of the Berkley Public Safety Department notes that the problem is not limited to the weekend of the Dream Cruise, but rather a prolonged issue. State Representatives are working to address this problem through new legislation, specifically House Bills 6151 and 6152, which aim to improve enforcement of loud cars. Further details on this proposed legislation are available from local news sources.
