Loud incessant car 'burnouts' noise
Hey there Neighborly neighbours!
Does anyone in Onehunga/Penrose area have any idea or know where the incessant and very loud car burnouts noise, that has been going on non stop all day today (Sunday) is generating from? I thought maybe Waikaraka park speedway, but in order to contact them, you have to call council, and can't get through to them as I'm sure they are inundated dealing with helping Flood and Cyclone victims. We get ONE quiet day around here, with no loud construction noise(big building site opposite my house), and the incessant screeching tyres and loud revving engines noise is doing my head in, so if I could identify it's origin, I might be able to get appropriate people/agency to deal with it. I do know decibel level noise limits are greatly reduced on Sundays for residential areas. I think around 40-50 decibels. This is definitely over that. Anyway, any light anyone can shed would be great! Thanks.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
