In Coimbatore, traffic cops have filed a complaint and seized the vehicles of motorists who use loud silencers. Two-wheelers are responsible for 70% of accidents and deaths in Coimbatore, according to police research. On main roads in the city, police have made it illegal for vehicles to travel faster than 30 kilometers per hour. Young people speeding on two-wheelers in contravention of the regulations, on the other hand, cause accidents. Driving with high-noise silencers causes significant harm to the elderly and the sick.
"The noise level of silencers on two-wheelers should be within a maximum of 80 decibels," community leader Avarampalayam Rajkumar stated. Young people and students, on the other hand, are purchasing two-wheelers with higher horsepower and louder silencers. As a result, other motorists are startled and may be involved in an accident because they are driving too fast and generating loud noises that may terrify other motorists and impair their hearing."
Deputy Commissioner of Municipal Traffic SR senthilkumar informed Hindu tamil News that motorists who installed noisy silencers are being prosecuted. After the original documents have been confiscated and the silencers have been changed, the documents are returned. Loud silencers should not be replaced, according to motorcycle dealers and auto mechanics. We've also advised local transportation authorities to keep an eye on things. vehicles are also seized if the number plates are incorrect or if the driver is speeding.
