Re: Illegal Motorcycles and Noise Harm

Dear Pediatrics.org,

I'm really concerned about loud motorcycles. I'm not concerned only about saving my already injured hearing capacity, but also to allow children to be able to develop without having their hearing attacked by people who don't care about anything but themselves.

What groups and individuals are specifically working on science that establishes hearing issues related to loud vechicles? Does "Pediatrics" have any articles on this subject?

Thank you,
