Rejected petition Reduce the maximum legal noise limit for motorbikes.

Noise from motorbikes is extremely disturbing and a health risk (anxiety provoking as it cannot be easily blocked out by just closing a window)

This can be significantly reduced by legislation. Use silencer to bring motorcycles to the same level of noise as cars and abide by same rules.

More details

Silence motorcycles.
Control the use of such motorcycles in residencial areas more strictly.
Motorcyles do not have priority over pedestrians and this should be made clear by education the motorcycle population.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about the noise produced by motorbikes, but we're not sure if you want the Government to reduce noise limits for motorbikes to match cars, create requirements for bikes to be fitted with technology to reduce the sound they emit, or something else.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
