Noisy Motor-Cycles
Sir, —Not for the first time, may one ask if nothing can be done about the quite hideous noise made by some motor-cyclists? Many of these machines nowadays are practically noiseless, while the majority of them are not unduly obtrusive; which only serves to make the offenders all the more blatant. One suspects, in fact, that most of the latter do it just to gratify some perverted sense of self-importance. A favourite sounding-board for these miscreants seems to be the Clyde-Fendalton roads intersection, where they “rev up’’ after being stopped by the traffic lights, with results that are quite intolerable to anyone in the adjacent shops. Cannot the police do something about it? —Yours, etc., MT. April 20. 1952.
