Roman Highway Route 118 in Fuxing District, Taoyuan City is a popular mountain running route for car and motorcycle enthusiasts, but vehicle engine noise also affects the peace of life of mountain residents. In the early morning of today (8th), the local Daxi Police Station and the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau implemented the "Quiet Peach Project" on Rome Highway to jointly inspect vehicles with excessive noise. They stopped a Porsche 911 GT3 with a new price of more than 8 million yuan. The standard noise value should be within 96 decibels. The actual measurement was 101 decibels, exceeding the standard by 5 decibels. According to the law, a fine of 3,600 yuan was imposed.
The police said that the winding mountain roads and beautiful scenery along the Beiheng Highway Highway 7 and the 118 Roman Highway attract many car and motorcycle enthusiasts to go hiking. However, when passing through the mountainous areas, some drivers arbitrarily increase the engine speed and produce high decibel noise, especially late at night and early in the morning, which is easy to cause dryness. Interrupting the rest of tribes and residents along the route has always been a key section of the crackdown on noisy vehicles. Recently, we have received reports from the public that noisy vehicles have reappeared. In order to maintain the peace of residents in the Fuxing mountainous area, a "Jingtao" service was planned at 1 a.m. today. During the service, a total of 10 cars and motorcycles were stopped and inspected, including a Porsche 911 The GT3 exhaust pipe volume exceeded the standard and a bill was issued, and a fine of 3,600 yuan was issued according to law.
Daxi Police Division Chief Xu Zhangzhe called on motorcycle enthusiasts to abide by traffic rules when running in the mountains to enjoy the scenery, avoid revving the engine at will, racing and making noise. They should slow down and lower the volume when passing through mountainous tribes and residential areas. The police will continue to conduct joint inspections with environmental protection units to jointly maintain environmental tranquility in mountainous areas and the quality of life of residents.
