Police to issue citation for noise, modified mufflers
New enforcement strategy to stop street racing in Atlanta
ATLANTA - The number one complaint Atlanta residents make about those street racers is not the reckless driving which is serious but the noise that impacts many more residents attempting to get rest at night.
Engines throttling well beyond midnight is the issue city council members hear about the most.
Commanders at the Atlanta Police Department have made a change to tighten enforcement. They have begun writing tickets to drivers with the modified exhaust systems.
And speed linked to these incidents is not required.
