Dr. Arline Bronzaft was working on this op-ed as part of our "Car Harms" series earlier this year when she took ill. She died on Oct. 29. We are publishing it posthumously as a tribute to her decades of service to New York City and her lifetime of work on noise pollution.
Car Harms: The Physical and Mental Health Effects of Noise and the Lessening of Social Values - Streetsblog New York City
Cities aren’t noisy, cars are. And we need to fix that if we are to retain our sanity, says one of the leading scholars in her final piece.

RIP Arline Bronzaft, a tireless pioneer, "the person who can rightly be called the founding mother of research into the public health effects of noise" seatacnoise.info/arline-bronz... #keeplistening
In honor of Arline Bronzaft
Noting the passing of a legend in public health. Her pioneering 1975 study established the link between noise and poor student performance.

A study by Bruitparif measured that “a single unmuffled scooter crossing Paris at night can wake as many as 10,000 people.”

This is my favourite quantifiable stat on vehicles having an effect on others. It doesn’t even get into emissions or collision safety.

“... If we really believed, ‘Do unto others as you would have others do unto you,’ we‘d have a much better world. I'm talking at the right time in our society (as it pertains to the lack of that).”
