A sleep-deprived British woman has admitted she's "not proud" after she yelled at her noisy neighbour.
Taking to social media to vent her frustration over a noisy resident, she explained that the issue stems from a man in his 20s who regularly idles his truck for 30 minutes at 4-5am.
The woman, at her wit's end, confronted the neighbour in the early hours.
The confrontation came after enduring the disturbance for some time, with her spouse initially reluctant to "rock the boat".
The woman argues that her neighbour has no need to 'heat up his engine' as it's still warm outside adding she thought it was a waste of time, energy, and fuel.
The disturbance has left her and her household completely sleep-deprived.

"This morning we both went outside and once my partner saw who it was immediately went back in.
"I couldn't contain myself and began yelling at him from outside my house - I angrily said 'stop doing this!' possibly including a few expletives.
"I'm not proud of it but I am so tired.

"Between him and another repeat offender (different issue which I have been to the authorities about), I am completely sleep deprived."
Prior to the confrontation, the woman said she had already contacted the police and council about the issue. However, the problem persisted, leading to her outburst.
Social media users offered various suggestions to address the issue with one advising reporting the truck to the police for excessive night-time noise, noting many communities have laws regulating this.

Another user pointed out that modern vehicles don't require lengthy warm-up periods.
"The days of needing to leave your car/truck to warm up before pulling off are long gone," they commented.
A third user emphasised the importance of assertive communication, suggesting the woman inform her neighbour of the disruption.
They advised asking him to idle the truck elsewhere, such as a McDonald's car park, and to involve the police if the behaviour continues.
