i am a police officer in the state of pennsylvania. There mearly city ordninces they vary from city to city here. I for one choose not to waste the time writing a ticket for petty ++++ such as Window film (Tint) Or the Noise Pollution Law which is here in the state of pa if you can here the radio 50 ft from the car After 11pm you are in violation. I will however stop someone and ask them to turn it off for the evening. fines can range from 100 - 350.00

Well I just have to branch from common opinion in this thread by saying you should have gotten the ticket. If it was that damn loud then you couldn't have possibly heard well enough for traffic like a distant approaching ambulance, a horn if you accidently start drifting towards another lane, etc.

Also, about not paying the ticket...the old expression "ignorance of the law is not an excuse" will surely apply; I seriously doubt it'll work for the judge.

its funny how a cop can write a ticket on a new law that was just passed, the news or newspaper dont talk about it or a special bulletin being passed around the city so i dont see what gives a cop a right to give somoene a ticket on a law that no one has heard about just yet.

cops these days got nothing better to do, no offense shadiguy1. I i like how you work that you will just give them a warning but their are alot of other cops that have nothing better to do in job but give tickets to people that never had a ticket before. And the world wonders why their is a murder you cant solve because police are busy writing tickets to innocent drivers and not looking around for suspicious people.

It's common knowledge that you annoy people by playing anything in your car at excessive volume ("disturbing the peace").

It's traffic officers' job to enforce (and specialize in) the traffic law. There are detectives to investigate other crimes. As for you wonder why nobody seems to be looking for known felons...they are often caught via simple traffic violations on interstate highways. I-95 near me has been speedtrapped quite a bit recently, and it's supposedly a corridor for drug trafficking.

Well see these laws are not passed because of said reasons, they are passed because people don't like hearing a car going 'boom boom boom' past their house while they are sleeping. I turn the amp's gain down in areas where there are alot of houses at night, I was pulled in a bussiness district.

As for begin less aware, I suppose you are, but I like to think of myself as a good driver because I do keep an eye on whats around me. Case in point the day I got pulled for speeding, I could'nt hear the trooper but I could see the blue lights in my rear view. Well acully I had an eye on him before he turned on the blue lights (he was gaining on me quick and I thought he was some idiot trying to race me at first because he was in a unmarked car).

Hey at least I don't talk on my cell phone while I drive

The fine I will pay if ordered to, but I will explain my situation to the judge at least, and hopfully he will give me a break. I'm not one of the fools that caused this law to get passed, the ricers in town are.

I really don't understand these ricers,

"Hey man I got this great idea, lets take this car from oversea's and throw a ++++ load of stickers on it for products we don't own, put some neon lights under it just to get some attention from the law man and while we are at it lets get a stereo installed and play it as loud as possible infront of the hospital at mid-night"

The kids in this town really need something to do! heh

See if this would have happened last night I would have said yes sir and left the damn stereo off until the next day. I wish there where more cops like you where I live man, everyone I have had to deal with save one has treated me like I was the scum of the earth. I don't know why these guys act this way but they give the rest of you a bad image, no wonder the people yell '++++ the police' all the time now a days.

Keep up the good work and stay safe!

umm.... there is such a law prohibiting your noise, its called disturbing the peace... so probably this is just an extension of that already existing law(which is not new).

Unless you talk at 90 dB, you're not disturbing the peace.

I really don't see how there can even be a debate about this. The music was loud enough to disturb others, which also means it was too loud to allow you to drive safely (I don't care how well you can see...driving requires tactile, visual, and auditory feedback). He was right to get the ticket, and hopefully will learn to keep the volume down.

It's also why cell phones are illegal in many places now where driving, including DC. It's a distraction: your brain is focusing on the conversation (or the loud music that can't be ignored) so you aren't devoting your full attention to the road.
