Noisy moped

[sela]

In the last few weeks there is a moped going in our street few times per day usually in the late hours. It seems he does deliveries. I saw today he got L sign but couldn?t get the reg number. Anyone else noticed that?

We Been having same but not seen as hear from back house.

The delivery guys often have L plates, to start with.

Several deliver by moped but not heard them all hours night, usally upto 9.30pm.

We been having a teen on super loud moped round round late night 3am 4 am very fast to.

That's annoying

There was a really loud moped went along Colwell Rd the other evening three or four times between 2am and 5am, I would say.

Yup - also down Friern Road about 3am - Thursday morning I think. Must have been going pretty fast given the horrible noise. A bit unreasonable given the warm night wiith many having windows open, must have woken up many families...

[SpringTime]

My oh my! Yes! It's true!. There's a loud moped somewhere... riding around in a big, big city. How inconsiderate! What were they thinking?

[TheArtfulDogger]

How deliverude as people are getting uber excitited and he should just eat his noisy bike

[NewWave]

Probably a local drug dealer at that time in the morning

Springtime - not sure what your sarcastic, unpleasant response is all about, or your motivation for the post. I suspect that many families were kept awake that night, by what was clearly at best, unthinking anti-social behaviour - its not btw a main road in (your words) a big big city - its a quiet area in a suburb at a time when people are sleeping. I understand we sign up for lots of this when we live in London and we can't really do anything about, but this forum is for sharing these experiences nonetheless. Maybe someone knows who the person is and can help prevent it happenign again. Maybe not - but either way, your input isn't particularly helpful...

Perhaps vehicles such as mopeds should be banned from the roads between 0000-0600 in the East Dulwich area, least they wake up an unfortunate person trying to get some sleep in their nice house. Let them ride around Peckham and wake residents there up instead.

Motorbikes are louder than cars and buses these days - they accelerate to get away from the traffic and it's quite a roar if you're four floors up.

[bobbsy]

Some scooters and motorcycles riding around the area are obscenely loud. The trend these days is for Moto-GP style short stubby silencers which do not have road legal baffles. There are no noise tests at higher revs for motorcycles during MOT. Even if there were, silencers are easily and quickly changed prior and post MOT.

However it looks like these are coming, so maybe the days are numbered.

Scummish sarcastic response.

Hope you're happy with your lot.

[Humdinger]

oh, the gloves are off! Excuse the pun.

I notice you didnt offer anything whatsoever to the conversation, just picked up on a response which displeased you. Careful twitching those curtains.

After I posted this message. This particular moped didn't come again in our street.

there is no noise level on motor bikes so there is nothing you can do or no one you can talk to about it ,try living in barry road with the police and post vans and buses whizzing down there .i guess they are doing nothing wrong , i wonder how many of you that complain drive cars that have not been looked after and are over the emissions level ?????
