Increase the legal noise level of motorcycles

What the petition asks

Increase the legal noise level of motorcycles to 110 dB
Motorcycles can be incredibly difficult to spot and many accidents are caused because of this.

By increasing the legal sound level of motorcycles, drivers and pedestrians will at least be able to hear motorcyclists coming, even if they can’t see them.

Loud bikes save lives.
