Rejected petition: Fine people that make serious noise with their car in residential areas.
Rejected on
I live on a road and has noticed recently that people that has altered their car such as bumper. This is very bad as I have a toddler and a baby. Sometimes people make noise their car around 22:00pm. I can understand if it's afternoon time but during the night it's not acceptable.
I want to government to please put fine on those that do this as it is not acceptable. They do it purposefully. People needs to sleep without any disturbance of that magnitude.
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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. It is already illegal to modify the exhaust system to make a vehicle noisier after it has been ‘type approved’ (checked it meets environmental and safety standards).In addition, people who do not comply with warning notices in relation to noise nuisance during the night can already be issued with fixed penalty notices by their local councils.
