Just like all the other traffic related problems, it is the driver who fails to pay attention while the innocent pay for their recklessness.

Regarding the man in Dublin - It is a tough situation and people who have birds are used to the noise levels. People who have little kids are used to the noise their children make, where people without children think it's very loud...

I hope the best for him.
