Daston Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Hi guys For the last few day I have been woken up at around 6 am by some 30 year old chav around the courner from our close. He basicly starts up his chaved up saxo and prelude leaves them running for 5 min and then blips the throttal for a futher 10 min before switching off. Anyone know the correct procedures. I dont facy going to have a word as I dont really want to see the tuscan get smashed up the next time I leave it on the drive. However it needs to stop as I may just ram a mellon up the exhaust! Or a few bags of Cat Sh*t! Figures crossed he will blow the head on both cars as thats all he does with them never seen them move apart from doing stupid burnouts up and down the close (which is full of children and parked cars). I am guessing he either has no insurance for the cars or no license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meph137 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I don't know the law but I'd be interested, there is a guy with a crosser near us, and without a joke you can hear it (I'm guessing) about a kilometre away, so you can imagine what the stupid thing sounds like coming down our road. I just don't get people with ridiculous exhausts like that, I think its extremely inconsiderate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul mac Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Hi guys He basicly starts up his chaved up saxo and prelude leaves them running for 5 min and then blips the throttal for a futher 10 min before switching off. . apart from the obvious reason that he is a c*ck, why would he do that ?, i would start with the council they have a noise section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermonkey Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 you could always go around his place when its dark with a oil draining tray + bucket and drain the oil out of his car, he can then start it up and rev it till 'bang' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Think the law is 11pm - 8am for noise. If its before 8am then you can lodge a complaint with the police. If he is doing it regularly at the same time then they will be able to nab him quite easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most actions about noise are civil actions (i.e. not criminal) brought by the council so I doubt reporting to the Police is relevant. I would suggest ringing the number on the back of your concul tax bill and asking them to put you through to the correct department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marbleapple Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Thats not what they told me when they came to the door asking for the music to be turned down at 2am a few years back LOL... thats slightly different. A 1 off incident that was 'disturbing the peace'. Its like horses for courses... no point driving a Impreza in formula 1, just like there is no point in driving an F1 car in a rally... My weird point... ring the police if you are woken up a 2am by next door having a rave, but go down the Council route for a long lasting resolution. It's my understanding that certain levels of noise are allowed and if they do take action they (the council) actually measure the noise and use this to seek injunctions etc against the noise maker.

Max Headroom Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 If he is racing his car up and down the street with children playing report him to the police. I had a numpty racing down the residential road where I live and I and another person rang the police and reported him. Havent had a problem since. Not that I would condone it but superglue his car door locks to stop him revving them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I vote for a quiet chat about the noise. If it continues then throw everything you can at him, including police, council and garden gnomes. Every little (person) helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
