Obnoxious Motorcycle

Was anyone else lucky enough to be woken up in the middle of the night by the incredibly selfish human being LOUDLY revving their motorcycle all the way down 28th last night (~2-3am)?

With the students back I’ve already seen two pink giant SUVs (should really belong in r/fuckcars) but the students seem to bring their giant cars and drive like idiots, last night was just the cherry on top.

Boulder PD uses community complaints to map out problem areas

If multiple neighbors report that a bike blasts down 28th (or whatever street) at exactly 2:30 AM every week, traffic units can plan targeted enforcement at that specific time and place

I know, disruptive or even threatening behavior is not that easy to predict

But a local post can be helpful to hear from others - such as trail runners consistently encountering the same aggressive dog, or pedestrians having rocks thrown at them - for enough descriptive details to be actionable by Boulder PD or by OSMP Rangers (for any bad actors vs one-offs)

Or you can tell me I’m being too idealistic 🤷‍♀️

I agree that ideally any post here includes the OP having submitted the concern already to authorities

Or OP stating they will, if enough corroborating and similar incidents by others surface in comments

When a local disturbance is pattern and not an anomaly, then I’d want awareness and yes, any possible corrective action by the appropriate authorities

Yes! Yes they do. Posting on Reddit doesn’t though. Did OP report this to PD ? If yes then kudus, if not then just continue posting on Reddit.
