Update on the War Against Loud Motorcycles

Sgt. Dave Cheverie updated the Charlottetown Downtown Residents Association on Tuesday, November 29th, on efforts to curb the use of modified mufflers on motorcycles. These bikes are often extremely loud and are the bane of many city residents. Sgt. Cheverie has been working closely with the provincial department of Highway Safety to target Motor Vehicle Inspection sites that are negligently allowing bikes with modified pipes to pass inspection. One of the MVI stations lost its license and the news spread quickly through the community. Hopefully this will begin to have an effect as bikes are inspected annually.

Listen to Sgt. Cheverie speaking to the CDRA:

    your obvously a bunch of morons, loud cans save lives. Il be sure by to come by specially and visit your town of ignorance and stupidity.
    If any of your “Special” group had a millionth of a brain cell you would welcome motorcyclists. They bring money in tourism, since 80% of motorcyclists are car drivers thats significantly less cars and as a result less traffic and space taken up. These motorcyclists are a huge cross section of every profession and background in a common hobby and for many sole method of transportation.

    No doubt you are retired and ignorant having never had the balls to try and ride. Or you still think todays motorcyclists are “the wild ones” or the other sterotypical stupidity.

    99% of accident are caused by car drivers, reflective gear, bright lights, and loud cans are proven to work.
