    noise cameras

    We call those “microphones” where I’m from :-P

    This sounds like a good idea. I wish we had something like that where I live. I shouldn’t be able to be woken up in the middle of the night by a vehicle half a mile away. There’s no good reason for a vehicle to make that level of noise.

      Saskatchewan introduced excessive noise legislation recently too. I believe the noise limits are still quite high though, and I haven’t seen much of a push for enforcement.

        but noise cameras can be automatic like speed cameras.

        And they should be, if proven as reliable as automated speed cameras. These things are cash cows for cities!
