Elon Musk bemoans fun police for making Tesla disable the feature that lets drivers blast fart noise

and music from outside car speakers

Tesla CEO Elon Musk took a dig at safety regulators on Saturday night, when he said "the fun police" forced the latest safety recall of 578,607 vehicles.

Even though Tesla has agreed to disable its Boombox feature following a National Highway Traffic Safety Association report, Musk did not appear pleased with the regulatory agency — as he rarely is.

The feature in question allows Tesla drivers to replace the normal horn honk with anything from a custom song clip to fart and goat noises. Last week, the NHTSA ruled that it violates US safety laws requiring electric vehicles to emit pedestrian warning sounds.

"What was the rationale behind the BoomBox recall?" one Twitter user asked Musk on Saturday.
