Pennsylvania Introduces Unfair Exhaust Noise Bill
DON’T DELAY! Please contact lawmakers to request their opposition for this proposal:
Overview: Pennsylvania has introduced SAN-opposed legislation (H.B. 2556) that would outlaw installing, modifying, and selling muffler and exhaust systems that increase a vehicle's noise.
Pennsylvania must implement a fair testing procedure and decibel limit for vehicle owners accused of exhaust noise violations. Other states have adopted a decibel limit of 95 decibels when tested under an SAE International procedure, which provides a fair and reasonable working system. This SAN-supported SAE test is conducted in a controlled environment using objective methodology. This solution offers Pennsylvania a clear standard with a proven record of success. H.B. 2556 awaits consideration from the House Judiciary Committee.
