Amsterdam has started the fight against noisy motorcycles and cars. On Friday, the city placed electric road signs in two places to warn road users if their vehicles are too loud. The warnings will eventually be replaced by “noise cameras,” which, like speed cameras, automatically send a fine to the offending driver, Parool reports.
Already in Canada! We need more!!!
Saskatchewan introduced excessive noise legislation recently too. I believe the noise limits are still quite high though, and I haven’t seen much of a push for enforcement.
Those Red Deer ones are manually used though. It’s good, but noise cameras can be automatic like speed cameras.
And they should be, if proven as reliable as automated speed cameras. These things are cash cows for cities!
