It seems more likely that people have given up complaining. I complained about motorised morons twice to the defunct 101 line,and once in person at the Police Station. I received no feedback.
My complaint is about the noise of defective or adapted exhausts. I have noticed no change - they are thundering up Castlegate right now.
I moved to Berwick in September last year and I agree with the above comment. I have thought about going directly to the station also, but decided not to because I doubted anything would be done about it. It surprises me they don't do anything though, since the police station is right near Hide Hill/the main street, where the boy racers loudly and very dangerously speed along. I'll be suprised if the hotels have many guests in Hide Hill if they have to put up with that noise every evening/night!
