The reminder, which was posted on social media, asked motorists to avoid disturbing the peace. “Some motorists, specifically the youth, drive their cars recklessly and cause noise on roads and sandy plots that are near residential areas,” the force said on its Facebook account. “This negative behaviour creates unrest and panic among people, especially children and the elderly, and stress among other road users.” Police said they will not tolerate those deliberately causing a disturbance and flouting rules. Offenders could have their cars impounded, and fines will be imposed on those who illegally modify a vehicle’s engine, or who drive a noisy car. Officers urged residents to report offenders by calling 999.
