City fights back against the many complaints of loud motorcycle noise

September 4, 2021 by SouthEtobicokeNews

POLICE working to measure loud motorcycle noise.

City officials are working to lessen loud motorcycle noise.

Super loud motorcycle and vehicle noise have been a constant source of complaints by residents of Humber Bay Shores and other Toronto areas.

City officials say they continue to receive complaints regarding “excessive noise from motorcycles, which is often a result of speeding.”

To help lessen motorcycle noise, Municipal Licensing and Standards have a dedicated Noise Enforcement Team that have partnered with Toronto Police to stage an event so riders can see if sound levels are within acceptable limits.

The event will take place at the Etobicoke Civic Centre this month to highlight and share information on the loud noise and what to do about it.

Police said no tickets will be given out and all riders are welcome.

City officials said online that while the Noise Bylaw prohibits unnecessary noise, bylaw enforcement officers do not have the authority to pull over vehicles in motion.

This specific authority is granted to Toronto Police under the Ontario Highway Traffic Act (HTA), who also have jurisdiction over speeding.

Join them on September 30, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Etobicoke Civic Centre, 399 The West Mall.
