Operation of Soundmaking Devices in Motor Vehicles (Repealed)

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rule action is to amend the current rule to reflect the 2005 revision to Florida Statute 316.3045, making it unlawful for any person operating or occupying a motor vehicle on a street or highway to operate or amplify the sound produced by a radio, tape player, or other mechanical soundmaking device or instrument from within the motor vehicle so that the sound is plainly audible at a distance of 25 feet or more from the motor vehicle instead of 100 feet as previously defined.

SUBJECT:

The proposed rule action revises the current rule changing the definition of the term “plainly audible” reducing the unlawful range that a mechanical soundmaking device or instrument can be heard coming from within a motor vehicle from 100 feet to 25 feet.
