24/7 operation - car noise

by reverb 22 Dec 2008, 6:33am

The only other 24/7 McDonalds I am aware of at Sylvania (I'm sure there's more) has long been a magnet for hoons from miles away. Go and have a look for a glimpse of Picton's future.
Even at 3 in the morning you will see a long stream of cars out the driveway and down the street, all with engines running.
And of course on the way there and back the typically modified noisy cars are creating noise far in excess of McDonalds itself's direct operational noise.
I could ALMOST tolerate a McDonalds in town that opened the standard 6-11 hours, but after that I don't think any resident wants their town to be a regional magnet for young inexperienced drivers, regardless of how many jobs they believe the "restaurant" will generate.
Isn't the road toll bad enough in the area? Roads leading into town are windy with 100km/h limits - a lethal combination for the young drivers who will form the majority of those utilising the 24/7 operation.
