Mayor’s wife not so far from truth about toxic male mufflers

As police launched a summer crackdown on loud cars and motorcycles Mayor Tory observed that his wife viewed such nuisances as evidence of certain male inadequacies. His honour added with typical discretion that “I will go no further than that.” But many will agree and applaud the campaign against these thoughtless barrages of noise. The crackdown was launched Monday in Yorkville, a so-called hotspot of such noise. “We are focussing here and on a few areas in Scarborough, including Kingston Road and Birchcliff Avenue,” said Superintendent Scott Baptist. “There have been many complaints going to city Councillors and they want us to do something about the loud car stereos and cars, trucks, and motorcycles exhausts emitting sound to the extent that it disturbs patrons at a restaurant, nearby residents, and other motorists on the roadway.” TPS story by Ron Fanfair

  1. I appreciate the efforts of the police to enforce the bylaws and quiet the street noise. However, would rather they focused their attention on ticketing the red light runners and those who don’t stop at stop signs and pass buses in the oncoming lane.
