Title: Booming and Fuming: Noise Nuisance from Car Stereos and Mini-Motorbikes

Summary: Mobile nuisance noise caused by loud car stereos is on the increase and making life a misery for some people in the capital, according to respondents to a snapshot survey published in our report. The investigation found some Londoners affected by noise from car stereos and mini motos suffer from stress and experience frustration that, at least in the case of car stereo noise, authorities are unable to tackle the problem effectively. The report makes a number of recommendations to address the problems of mobile urban nuisance noise: The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) should work with councils to improve understanding of the scale and location of nuisance from loud car stereos, create practical guidance for officers tackling the problem and pilot enforcement in hotspots. The MPS should provide local police teams with the existing information about the best methods for tackling inappropriate mini moto use. The Department of Transport should specifically address nuisance noise caused by mini motos as part of their review of off-road motorcycles.
