ticket for having my music too loud stock door speakers should I go to court?
ticket for having my music too loud stock speakers should I go to court?
The officer was not even in his vehicle he was standing right by the stop sign where he stopped me. I tried to explain that I do not have a system in the car he said he did not care. Not only that he wrote down that I was born in 1998 and the wrong race. He also did not measure the distance of the noise or the decibels. Should I fight this ticket he put 10 points on my license.
Well he wrote on the back $114 10pts
It appears that you have a number of questions. I will try and help you.
- Is it possible to exceed the noise limit with stock speakers? yes
- Is a police officer required to sit in a police vehicle prior to issuing a ticket? no
- Is a police officer able to stop a suspect’s vehicle without driving a police vehicle? yes, the police officer can also use hand signals to stop a vehicle.
- Is the race on the ticket the same that people use on the streets? No, police use a uniform crime reporting tool. The choices are; white, black, Asian, pacific islander, American Indian (these reports were set up many years ago before the politically correct era)
- Is the police officer required to use a scientific instrument to determine the sound pressure of the noise (usually measured in decibels)? no, the officer merely has to state that he heard the noise from XX feet away (the distance varies by city and is established by an ordinance).
- Are points against your driver’s license assessed upon conviction of a noise ordinance? no, the points only are issued upon conviction of a moving violation such as speeding or DUI.
- Is the ticket void due to a simple error such as the birth year? no
Hope this helps.
