Ignoring the road rules- Motorcycle riders under surveillance
They deal not only engines, but also the exhaust (murflers). Results: young bikers cause unbearable noise in the ears.

Religious leaders have appealed to the Commissioner of Police as well as the Minister Anil Bachoo. Enough is enough! It is through a petition that the head of the Al Aqsa has called on central fire station to stop at letting go of some young riders who are rain or shine in this suburb of the capital. 

For some time, young people take pleasure in tampering with their bikes, not necessarily big guns, specifically the H 100 or 125 cc Trial. Having tampered with the engines, inflated by about 50 cc at least with the addition of new cylinders 'Reboreda' appropriate and circles, they are activated on the side of exhaust pipes. The 'rooms' of the 'murflers' widened, some are downright removed, while the muffler is mandatory under the regulations are removed allowing a larger output of fuel burned. 

In doing so, the noise is no cushioning and out in nature, with a deafening noise for the ears. "We understand that young people should have fun, but there is also respect for others," protested a social worker from Plaine-Verte. He explained that during the day, the problem does not really, but at night, it's downright unbearable: "These young motorcycle traveling in groups, they take to the streets and alleys of Plaine-Verte and around, past the mosque at the time of prayers. Inside, you can not hear what the Maulana said. "

 In addition to this, there are students in Forms V and VI are in the midst of exams. "Right now, they know the 'mock exams' for the School Certificate and Higher School Certificate, they are no longer able to concentrate with all that infernal racket. We need the police to act, if people take to the streets to demonstrate. We invite the Minister Anil Bachoo to come one day to Plaine-Verte, 20 to 23 hours. He will see first hand and hear with their ears to what we suffer daily. "

In Parliament on Tuesday in a matter of Deven Nagalingum, Anil Bachoo Minister admitted that the problem of trafficking of motorcycle engines are more today. He plans to take the bull by the horns by requesting help from the police and the National Transport Authority, to discourage young people, then to punish them if necessary. The central fire station, you take things very seriously. Regular patrols will be posted in various hot spots to get hold of these bikers.

It recalls that three weeks ago, a young man from Port-Louis was heading for Rose Hill and rolled in the second row . A group of young riders coming down to the capital. Some were driving outside the white line. To avoid them, the young driver of the car veered right and came to rest against a tree. The shock was such that the BMW was split in two. The driver was trapped, his feet on the pedals. It took the intervention of firefighters and more than an hour's struggle to extricate the driver of the vehicle to take him to the hospital. The bikers, they do not stop, even if only to give him first aid.

The youth groups have their base of operations at Plaine-Verte, Cassis and Little River. They ply the main streets of most cities this weekend and ignore the rules of the road, driving at breakneck speed.
