Unfortunately that’s a social problem that one person can’t solve alone. Here in Brazil it seems to be a common problem that individuals looking for attention will modify their motorbikes to be extremely loud and I’ve never seen this kind of thing getting much outrage from other people. They treat it as normal and police seem to have more pressing things to worry about.


In Paris they added automatically ticketing noise/detecting cameras.

It’s a matter of people wanting it.


Really? How does that work if two motorcycles go by in parallel and only one is "extra-loud"?


I guess it can use the time delay between two different microphones to figure out the direction.

And I guess if it can’t be sure it won’t ticket.
