What Is Considered Disturbing The Peace In Pennsylvania?

[MacBean]

my neighbors children ride thier 4 Wheel ATV's round and round all day long.. the noise and the smell of exhaust are really starting to annoy the the rest of the neighborhood. Summer's coming and we want to be able to sit outside or open our windows on nice days is this considered Disturbing The Peace? Pennsylvania

Also the cops have a lot of latitude in this area. If it's a bunch of kids riding ATVs, the cops may decide it's a "public nuisance" rather than disturbing the peace, and they can go after them every time their out wheeling around. Also there may be restrictions on where they can drive those things.So give the cops a "friendly" call and see what your options are. 45 months ago
