Summons for loud exhaust?! (NYC)

Amj2020

For those who do not live in NYC let me help you understand the stupidity...

In NYC they want to tell you how much soda you can legally buy/drink at one time (if you are too stupid to know soda isnt healthy, I Want you to meet my Friend Mr. Darwin) I don't need my local government forcing me to be healthy.

Cigarettes... yup you may be stupid if you smoke, but you are even dumber to smoke in nyc for 15-18 dollars PER PACK. Not to mention its going to be illegal to display the cigarettes in nyc, out of sight out of mind is our philosophy.

JUST WAIT

Bloomberg is pushing his new Styrofoam ban to help CLEAN up the streets and be more environmentally friendly despite costs to local vendors.

To be in NYC is almost a guarantee for at least one Cop with bad intentions to engage you in some moronic conversation. Don't accidentally photograph them for your scrapbook or they may confiscate or destroy your camera.

You may actually have a good time if you visit here, but just be aware its some Communist Capitalist Hybrid pile of poo right now, and Im looking to move out of here.

I'm surprised NYC would have a parking ticket, summons fight by phone or mail system, for tickets. I lived in NYS for 50ys and only left 2yrs. ago

What is the link to the resolution system ?

Most tickets in NYS have a guilty or not guilty plea by mail , with one little box for a explanation to go along with a guilty plea with a reason, but this does very little , and most times you will be just simply fined by a court clerk and ordered to pay online or by MO etc.

So if you plead not guilty you will be given a trial date, and most courts in NYS you at least have to see the court clerk in person to get the ticket tossed, I can't see a phone rep. locating your summons and taking care of it by phone and showing proof of the correct documents for his car.

I've had m fair share of run ins with the police. Despite all the negative hatred here on them, most of the time I have a fine experience with them. I do have multiple PBA cards, and typically they do work if im not being a complete douche driving or attitude to them. And even times ive forgotten my wallet and didnt have them on me, if you are polite to them they usually give you the same tone and respect back. Not saying that means you are getting out of the ticket, but not every cop is as stated from the above experiences.

Its no different than any other job, there are good people and bad people. I'm sure its just the same as anyone whos had a mechanic try and screw them and lie to them about what they need fixed and what not, when its really fine.

but back on topic, fight the ticket if its worth you paying gas and tolls to come back. Especially if its not points on your liscence, just go by whatever is cheaper. if its cheaper to just pay the fine and not the money spent to travel back just do it. otherwise, unless the cop has a decibal reading on your car then whats his subjective opinion is loud compared to someones else with no hard numbers to prove it was above any specific law numbers. I dont know if there are specific numbers for nyc, but i can find out from a buddy if you want me to.

What is the exact violation that he wrote on your ticket? and the violation # if you can read it. That will make it easier for me to get from my friend what the ticket really means and how easy or hard to get out of it is.

Under "in violation of section" the number is 24-236(A)
"Title of offense" unreasonable noise from exhaust.

i think the cop put infiniti on purpose so it frightens you and gives you headache to have to go to court for something that he knows will be tossed.

he probably also knew he couldn't do anything about it to prove you even rev'ed that high at all (maybe?)

ts-c63

That's actually a pretty good point

raymondo510

Agreed, seems like the cop is just being a D bag and trying to mess with you

I had a similar summons, not sure if it's the same violation or not though. I went to court, showed the judge a fix-it ticket that I had an OEM exhaust and it got tossed. In and out in about an hour depending on how many people were there.

I would report the Cop to Internal Affairs and say he was abusive and Unprofessional.

D bags like this usually have more than one run in with IA and you can let HIM explain his actions to guys that like to bust the balls of dirty Cops...Give him a taste of his own medicine..

And I LOVE the Police in my Area....So My post comes from a PRO Cop guy...But this NY Cop needs his wings clipped...Good Luck
