Brits To Tackle Loud Exhaust Pipes With Noise Cameras

I'm all for this in the U.S.

Great idea, although the increasing ability of technology to monitor more and more aspects of our lives is pretty scary.

I am all for this , on the BRP it is sometimes unbelievable to hear these loud pipes and spoil the beautiful mountains.

Hopefully this works and the US adoptes similar measures in the future. Everyday I am aggravated and disturbed by millennials on sport bikes and/or baby boomers on V twins with uncapped open exhausts that rev the sh#t out of their engines with no regard for any of the people around them.

Red light cameras are being challenged in court as being unconstitutional because there is no due process involved. Many states and municipalities have removed them or outlawed them all together for that reason.
I don't believe that sound cameras would face any better of a fate here than that.

Nope. Don't like speed cameras, red light cameras, or now noise cameras. I don't like loud bikes or cars either, but I could not possibly care less that other people like them nor do I think they should be ticketed for riding with them. Further, I think it's amusing how we are so quick to stereotype riders who like loud pipes. Remember, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

I do disagree on the ticketing of loud pipes though. If the equipment conforms to the noise requirements at the time of manufacture, fine. But overly loud pipes are a no-go item and the riders should be made to fix that issue.
If you get stopped by an officer and ticketed for it, fine. but no robo-tickets.
