Lucky bastards. I had to go over to my neighbors house the other day and roust him out of bed to get him to pull the negative term. off his battery so his car alarm would stop going off in the middle of the night. It was going off because the battery voltage was getting low.

Different thing. You're talking about an alarm going off. This is just about the beeps/chirps/horn that sounds the arming and disarming of the alarm stateside that we don't have on this side of the pond (not sure about the UK). I imagine it's a european directive or something. They love that kind of rule.

I hear ya though on nighttime alarms. Whenever I'm in New York I'm always hearing those stupid-ass Clifford alarms going off. The ones that cycle through half a dozen different alarm patterns. I think they go off when a fly lands on the roof of the car.
