Enact a law restricting noise pollution from the public

Enact a law restricting noise pollution from the public — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

There should be restrictions regarding the creation of noise pollution from cars, machinery, etc. around certain times/areas. This incudes revving engines to create excessively loud noises

Additional details

Up to 16.5% of the UK population have sensory sensitivities. This includes autistic people and other neurodiversities. When accessing public places there is a large amount of noise pollution, especially regarding to cars and motorcycles on the road and this can cause a lot of upset and distress to those with higher sensitivity. Even neurotypical people find loud noises quite annoying and more restrictions being put in place will create a nicer place to live in.
