But just making further restrictions they will still not care they are going to do it anyway so and still having residents complaining about it. Just enforce current regulations and the few of them will behave for the good of all parities.

We do not close down our streets because we have a certain group of people who hoon on our roads. Laws have been introduced and enforced on our roads to combat this.
