Windsor Police target loud motorcycles Deputy chief calls noise problem a North American issue

Police are cracking down on motorcycle noise in Windsor.

Deputy Chief Jerome Brannigan said officers are on the lookout for altered mufflers that generate excessive or unusual noise.

He said police have laid charges and ticketed 50 people so far, with a conviction rate of 50 per cent.

Brannigan said the issue isn't unique to the Windsor region.

"It's a country-wide issue, actually it's a North American issue," he claimed "I've read all kinds of information in the United States where communities are experiencing very similar, troubling issues with noise." READ ON
