Re: Vehicle Noise
The noise limit for a motor vehicle in NSW is 90 decibels for cars and 94 for motorcycles and there is a web site you can report noisy vehicles to. I presume you have a similar facility and limits in the UK (in fact knowing how slack our pollution laws are yours are probably more stringent).

I realise that is useless to you but it might give you a clue to help you find the equivalent UK web site.
For a noisy exhaust report to be complete, you will be required to provide the following information:
- Your contact details - You must provide your name and phone number when making a report, but these details will never be passed on to the owner of the vehicle.
- Vehicle registration plate details - The six-digit vehicle registration number and state of registration helps us locate the owner of the vehicle. Vehicles registered in NSW, ACT, Queensland, South Australia and Victoria can be reported.
- Description of the vehicle - Details about the vehicle such as make, model, colour and type help ensure the vehicle has been correctly identified.
- Location - Provide the street and suburb where the noisy vehicle was observed.
- Date and time - Provide the date and time the vehicle was observed.
