Lord Laird – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Laird on 2016-03-17.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what proposals they have to reduce the noise level of motorbikes travelling on public highways.

Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

There are already a number of measures in place to control motorcycle noise with manufacturers required to meet strict noise limits which are then enforced by the police and through the annual MOTs. There are currently no plans for further measures.
