HC Deb 27 January 1971 vol 810 c138W
105. Mr. Goodhart

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many drivers of motor vehicles were charged in 1970 for allowing their vehicle to make excessive noise.

Mr. Sharples

Provisional figures indicate that during the first nine months of 1970 there were in England and Wales nearly 10,400 prosecutions of drivers for vehicle-noise offences other than sounding a horn.
