Road Safety Services Begins Project Noisemaker

Posted On Wednesday July 01, 2020

Region of Peel –Road Safety Services will be launching Project Noisemaker, today, July 1, 2020. This project is designed to identify and reduce the number of motor vehicles with modified and/or excessively loud exhaust systems on Peel roads. The community concern for these vehicles has been apparent much more in residential areas during the day and night.

The Peel Regional Police will be conducting strict enforcement for the entire month of July. We encourage vehicle owners to repair modified exhaust systems and avoid using devices such as factory-issued mechanisms to alter and increase the sound of their vehicles in quiet, residential areas.

Vehicles will be subject to charges, including Improper Muffler and Unnecessary Noise contrary to the Highway Traffic Act. These charges include fines of $110 upon conviction.

Our commitment to road safety is a core policing function. Our officers remain vigilant twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week. Speeding, aggressive driving, and impaired driving remain enforcement priorities for our officers.

Anyone with information concerning aggressive driving or illegal street racing activities can contact the police by calling 905-453-3311. The public can also file a complaint through Road Watch or by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or at peelcrimestoppers.ca.

For media inquiries, please contact the on-duty Media Relations Officer at (905) 453-2121, ext. 4027.
