A loud noise
Davis, who was in the middle of a heated argument with an angry driver, was suddenly shocked out of the conversation by a resonant sound that echoed far away. It wasn’t a normal sound, but a crescendo that grew louder with each passing second. This was the sound of a vehicle speeding along the road.
Davis was intrigued by the recklessness and audacity of the driver. As expected, this approach was met with indignant reactions from drivers who felt they had been wronged. He ignored their protests and penalized those who were loudest by arbitrary charges of “dissent”.
