Eduardo Andrade Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Now before I start this thread, I'd like to ask the people who are gonna trash me with shit to please refrain from posting and keep the comments to your self and simply answer the question I asked. I'm from Aurora, IL, but I'm pretty sure this sound ordinance is the same throughout all of Illinois except maybe the city of Chicago. http://www.elburn.il.us/index.aspx?NID=169 I was recently pulled over by a cop after pulling out of McDonalds, my system so far consists of what is in my signature, except for the amp, the amp that same day was upgraded to the B200.2 for 2 dollars or so. When the cop asked me why I thought I was pulled over, I answered "I don't know" because I honestly didn't think ~40 or so watts (not sure how many watts the amp really puts out) was that loud, but he told me he could hear me over a block away from INSIDE his vehicle. When he told me it was for my music and just asked me to turn it down, but he did not state if this was a warning. However, when I told my friend about the incident they said that warnings (also known as "heat") are still recorded. So I was wondering, because I thought the law was 75 feet at 90db in a commercial area, what does the law really say? Or what does it literally translate into? And if this was a warning, how long will this "heat" stay on me?

C-Fizzy Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 If he didn't give you a slip of paper, it's only a verbal warning. No "heat" is on you.

Eduardo Andrade Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 do you think that an amp that is rated at 75 x 2 (and wasn't playing the full 75, plus it might not do the full 75 anyway, but not too sure about Lightning Audio products, all I know is they're decent and are part of Rockford Fosgate) is really that loud though? and I'm pretty sure I was the only one bumpin, besides he followed me for at least 2 blocks.

Born_Again Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 In my metro area any police interactions are recorded and stay with you for a long time, even if you didn't get a ticket. That way the cops can know if they're dealing with someone who has constant interactions with the police. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
