We rented an apartment near the Arabian Gulf Street, with a beautiful view and everything is great. The only problem is that everyday some people always race their motorcycles with loud mufflers between about 2 AM and 4 AM back and forth on this street. Some of our friends couldn't bear with the noise and moved. I wonder if anybody here is experiencing the same thing.

unfortunately it is a sad reality you cannot escape - you could contact the police, but then the motorists would just disappear for a day, and come back later, once the police leave. the gulf road is a notorious pick-up/ race street, its the hidden cost of its beauty.

@legacy Thank you! I didn't think of the police. I contacted Public Authority For Roads & Transportation department and Occupational Standards, Assessment & Certification Center by sending them an email. Their email addresses are at . But I never got a reply, which is expected.

you overshot your shot they are responsible for making the roads, not how they are used but I admire your persistence

@legacy Oh OK. I didn't find the email address or a webpage for the police. I just found "Kuwait Government Online > Contact Us"

Unfortunately, the webpage is broken. Submitting a message returns an error

"There has been an error in processing the request. Please try again later."

I'll see if I can find a better place to file this complaint. Thank you!
