Bill Summary

Prohibits modification of mufflers and exhaust systems to produce audible sounds.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits the modification of mufflers and exhaust systems on motor vehicles to produce audible sounds that exceed the sound emitted by the original equipment. It amends existing laws to make it unlawful to install or modify a vehicle's exhaust system in a way that amplifies or increases the noise above the original factory level. The penalty for violating this provision is consistent with the penalty for other violations of the state's motor vehicle laws. The bill also grants the Commission the authority to promulgate standards concerning the audibility of warning devices on vehicles.
