LEOMINSTER, MASS. (WHDH) - Police in one Massachusetts city say they plan to start issuing $100 fines to drivers of vehicles that make “unnecessary noise.”
In a new ordinance, Leominster police warned residents, “No sound reproduction system operated within a motor vehicle in such a manner as to create unnecessary noise for any person other than the driver and passengers in said vehicle.”
The department noted in a Facebook post that it will begin issuing warnings immediately “for the peace and safety of all.”
Police say repeat offenders will be slapped with a fine for an ordinance violation.
Anyone who would like to report a violation is urged to contact the Leominster Police Department’s non-emergency line at 978-534-7560.
