Rejected petition Create a space for motor enthusiasts to go to in towns and cities to stop ASB.
I and many people think that in every town and city possible, there should be spaces for motor enthusiasts to go to where they can meet and use their vehicle in a separate environment to the rest of the public. Even a simple, empty car park like place would be sufficient.
More details
I think this is a great idea as in every city or town there is a high amount of ASB due to motor vehicles. This would benefit residents as they will not have to deal with loud noise, speeding or dangerous driving. The vehicle owners will have an opportunity to take themselves and the vehicles out of the public areas and engage elsewhere. And lastly, the police will have more time to deal with other crimes rather than dealing with motorists. So ultimately, every party involved will benefit.
