Annoying sounds from cars at stop light


What causes the stereo in the car next to you at the stop light so loud and annoying with over the top bass and how can the driver stand it?

Well you have hit a nerve. I majored in English.  English Lit. 

Thanks for the correction. Would you mind editing my posts, the pay sucks but we offer health care and a pension plan. 
So these stupid drivers are only 6". I would postulate that the waves coming off the back directly towards the metal sheeting on the door get that resonating and perhaps at a much lower frequency then the driver is producing, remembering that larger more massive objects at a lower frequency. 

So now we have speaker the size of a car door pumping out bad bass. 
$1K cars with $3-4K stereos around here. All I hear is bunch of rattles and buzzy bass. Definitely annoying.

There are more than likely, good size sub woofers in the trunk.
What is with the subs driven to total overload such that they are buzzing and vibrating? Perhaps the thicker skulls of their owners require a higher volume. Glad I don't have to put up with that racket.
