Noisy Car This morning

I was woken up this Morning at 7:30am , by a very noisy car. I live in Ealing Broadway, and i hear this car every few months.  My windows face the back , and are near a road , so i was thinking that this car must be waking up Hundreds of people in the area around Grange Road.  Did anyone else get woken up ?

If its VOSA approved and as built or road legally modified, it's legal.1970s Maserati biTurbos were real glazing rattlers but they were fully approved for road use.

You could reporting it on the police non-emergency number.

No, caused by the decimation of the Roads Policing Unit whil 'Hapless' continued to build his PR entourage and allowed oer 600 roles at TfL to be filled on six figure salaries.  Tories got it wrong on many things no doubt but not in this case.

Yeah, let's shake Labour's Money Tree, largesse for all!  Borrow To Pay Off Your Debts - Genius!    🤣Meanwhile, back to Needlessly Noisy Cars ........

No - one caused by austerity which the Tories themselves admitted went on too long.

It is indeed a government problem. A local government problem of the administration led by the hapless mayor.

Cuts cuts cuts.  It's a Govt problem ...  still.

We have both here as well but a hapless Mayor who would rather extend his press and PR entourage than sort out the mess he has made of virtually everything he touches. Housing, TfL, policing have all been a disaster on his waych and he was culpable well before the pandemic he now blames for his failings.

Cuts cuts cuts.  They've given the lazy and inconsiderate the opportunity to behave antisocially.  I understood they had noise guns as well as speed guns in Paris.

There are new acoustic cameras being put up.Typically I see this as a cash cow.Yes fine catch this idiot with deliberate exhaust modifications, but most likely it will be your average hard working joe.Same with speeding, if I catch the ****er doing about 50/60 disown my road, they will need ..........!

No, it's just that following the wholesale slashong of the Roads Policing Unit there is no-one to enforce the law anymore.

Whatever happened to being heavily fined for "Creating undue noise from careless manner of operation" and/or a "non-legal modification" or whatever it was/is called?In my youth I got pulled all the time back in Oz on my Trumpy.Guess Plod now recognises that vehicle operators have a Right to enjoy themselves whilst making our lives a Noise Nuisance Misery?

There is one (actually more than one) that uses Boston Road at around 5:00 am. It has a really annoying turbo wastegate whistle as well as just being bloody loud.Sadly, with no Met Traffic Unit to speak of I guess he will just continue to get away with it.
