NOISY MOTOR CYCLES.
VIGOROUS ACTION TAKEN.
" PROSECUTION IN EVEKY CASE." No less than 52 prosecutions -were brought by the chief traffic inspector, Mr. George R. Hogan, at the Police Court this morning. Most of the charges concerned noisy motor cycles. air. Hogan said that the way in which some of the motor cycles were Ridden about the town was fast becoming a public nuisance. The traffic department was determined to remedy the matter, and many other prosecutions were to follow this month. The department was now prosecuting in every case where an offence was disclosed. The magistrate, Mr. W. R. McKean, agreed with Mr. Hogan that noisy motor cycles were a great nuisance. In future, he said, penalties would be imposed which, would, no doubt, act as a deterrent. Fines ranging from 10/ to £1 were imposed in each case to-day.
