A 24-hour claw machine store in Taipei has faced complaints from residents regarding nighttime noise disturbances, although investigations reveal that all machines have been modified to be soundless. The Taipei City Environmental Protection Bureau has received multiple noise disturbance complaints, prompting the implementation of heavier penalties for creating disturbances between 10 pm and 8 am in residential areas. While adjustments like reducing volume or closing at night could solve the issue, some operators argue that noise complaints persist even with silent machines due to customer actions. The bureau emphasizes the need to respect residential peace and order and may fine offenders between 6,000 and 30,000 NTD.
