'1984' in 2024: ‘Noise cameras’ coming to NYC to punish loud drivers

It's a loud, overcrowded city. This is like fining people who each chocolate during a chocolate factory tour.

“Noise cameras” that detect souped-up cars, motorcycles and other loud vehicles are coming to a street near you.
A new bill authorizing the cams, authored by Councilman Keith Powers (D-Manhattan), is expected to pass Thursday.
Under the measure, the cameras would activate if a vehicle reaches at least 85 decibels from 50 feet or more away.
It would snap photos of the law-breaking vehicles’ license plates, triggering a ticket to be sent directly to the registered owner — similar to how the state’s red-light and speed cameras work.
“Noise complaints are way up and enforcement has been very difficult — especially in my [East Side] district and other parts of Manhattan,” Powers said. “We saw the cameras work well” in Paris, and “thought it would enhance enforcement.”
At least five cameras would be installed in each of the five boroughs at yet-to-be-determined locations by the end of September 2025.
However, Powers said that’s just a minimum and expects many more.
Violators would face fines of $800 for the first offense and up to $2,625 for a third offense.

Fines seem excessively high but loud vehicles are annoying AF. We get it. You have a shite mustang. STFU

Just set an amp up near an intersection and trick the cameras into thinking every car is too loud.

My God I wish they would put hose bitches all over Baton Rouge...I am so sick of these thugs in their Chargers

Shitty Mustang, Camaro and Charger drivers beware.

Thank you Chairman Xi and China for giving our elites the motivation to smash the plebs.

I see nothing wrong with this.

Disagree. You don't need to be intentionally loud and annoy everyone else.

Can they re-introduce “stop and frisk” while they’re at it?
Posted on 12/5/23 at 1:16 pm to Partha
Is there a version that could be installed in movie theaters?

There are two guys in my neighborhood I wish we had this for. One guy has Mitsubishi with the damn Fast and Furious exhaust that sounds like a chainsaw. He will be going 10-15 mph down our street and his car sounds like it's struggling trying to do 60 going up the hill.
Drives me fricking nuts.

bullshite.
This is a city whose official bird is the middle finger and it’s people are notoriously loud and argumentative. Fining “loud” vehicles in this case means a tax on any combustion engine.

There is a difference between there and NYC with regards to traffic.
In the words of Denis Leary, the last guy to get a speeding ticket in NYC had crashed into the Empire State Building in the 30s.

IF they did, no one would pay the tickets and nothing would happen to them.
