Episode Details

Universal Studios Hollywood is installing two new sound barriers to tame the deafening screams of riders on its upcoming Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster, after furious complaints from Toluca Lake residents who likened the noise to a murder scene. City councilmember Adrin Nazarian confirmed the upgrades will be done by early September, with a community meeting planned to ease tensions. Though the ride’s machinery is quiet, it’s the human screams that triggered neighborhood outrage — despite Universal’s prior promises of noise control through sound walls and special track materials. The coaster remains in testing, but these fixes aim to make its grand opening less disruptive for locals.
