LETTER: Cars and trucks can also be noisy

Regarding the petition to stop loud motorcycles, I must ask the people who signed this petition to think about another.
BU005714

Regarding the petition to stop loud motorcycles, while I have no issues with this endeavour, I must ask the people who signed this petition to think about another. Specifically a petition to stop themselves from making a lot of noise with their cars and trucks.

About 50 per cent of the drivers of Nelson seem to have no mufflers on their cars and trucks. I, and I’m sure others, have noticed that smaller cars and passenger-sized trucks like to literally roar at high speeds around the roads of Nelson, belching their loudness all over everybody around them.

The police meanwhile do, well, actually nothing.
