Addicted2bass Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 I just got my new subs in wednesday, 2 12" Kicker L5s, I have them in a ported box running off a JBL 600.1. Well yesterday I was driving around and I was at a traffic light in town, I didnt notice the cop was behind me cuz my rearview mirror had fell off earlier that day. The light turns green and I make my turn, then I notice the cop was behind me, I turned it down quick but it was to late. He pulled me over right away. He asked me if I knew why I pulled him over and I said no. Then he asked if I had my stereo up and I said maybe a little. he told me it was shaking his truck, then he proceded to tell me if he caught me with it up that loud again he would arrest me for disorderly conduct! :eek: I didnt get a ticket, but now when im drivin through my town with the system on im gonna have to be lookin over my shoulder the whole time. I live in a pretty small town, there is only one cop car and like 4 cops. me and my friends have never had a problem and we play our systems loud all the time. Hsve any of you ever had a cop tell you he would arrest you for your system?? I expected a warning or even s ticket, but not that!! Could they even legally do that?? It sounds like bullshit to me.

patgizz Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 i hate it when some ass drives around with their bass all the way up shaking all the cars around him, so maybe instead of worrying IF you'll get caught, take steps to make sure you won't. like turn it down, and maybe you'll have hearing beyond your mid 20's too.

Addicted2bass Posted August 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 If i wanted to listen to my music quitely I wouldnt have bought subs And I didnt even have it up that loud, not loud enough to hurt my ears. its the high that kill your ears anyway, not the bass.

slick Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 I don't like rude ass people that drive around town with there stereo loud. Keep it down to normal listening level in town, and you won't have any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badassoldspower Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 All i know is that here in omaha its a $500 ticket and/or 5 months jail. The law is written as if it can be heard from more than 50ft away, its disturbing the peace. Trust me i know ive got a Treo SSI4.4 running at 1100 watts and can hit close to 140 trust me, ive had the law recited to me several times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan from Ohio Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 I live in a small town of about 1300 people. When I was younger (in my teens-20) I was always getting bitched at for my system. I since have grown up and have learned how to be responsible with my system. Ive been pulled over, cussed out, chased, yelled at @ stop lights and even a beer bottle thrown at my car once. I was once very much like you, bouncing my system everywhere. I guess all I can say is boom responsibly. Know where and when its accepatable. To me, anything in the country (no city limits) its free for all. In cities providing the street is 45 MPH or higher I let it ring. Under 45 I keep it down. At all stop lights its down. Within 10 minutes of my final destination, down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass fuckin travels. People 4 blocks from you can hear bass. I used to live like 3 blocks from a main 'cruise' route and all the goddamn ricers used to have their systems cranked up. Can't even hear the music.. just the constant BOOM BOOM BOOM from those stupid f-in subs.. just enough to rattle the pictures on the wall and wake one up. That is especially nice at 2AM. Music sounds frickin AWESOME when all you can hear is bass, cause you're just SO damn cool when you're bumpin' around town and everyone looks at you. Most people work in the morning and don't much appreciate that shit. Enough people here complained and it stopped fairly quickly. Thank you police for finally doing something. You probably got stopped because enough people finally complained about you and your friends' shit. Should I go buy a system and sit in front of your house at 2AM and crank it up? I'm on a public street and if I didn't want to listen to my music quietly, I wouldn't have put those subs in my car and sat in front of your fuckin house. Thats a stupid excuse. Time to realize its not just you in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't give a shit if someone is cranking it during the day.. most of these idiots out there don't realize what respectible times are. The thing they need to realize is that IF they've been stopped, chances are enough people have complained about it.. Thats when you learn to respect people and back off. Go out of town if you're that damn addicted to bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addicted2bass Posted August 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Well to clarify, this was in the afternoon. And most of the area around my town is country area. Im not worried about my system being stolen, there is just about no crime where i live. Hell I leave my car unlocked with the keys in it alot of the time. If im going anywhere that theres a chance of my system gettin jacked I turn it off. In my town its really only me and two of my friend that have loud systems. My one friend thinks that the cops are being dicks this weekend b/c its the yearly town festival (the corn festival...go ahead make fun lol). And to supreme_style: What did someone shit in your corn flakes this morning of what?? If bass wakes you up you must be a damn light sleeper, and why would I sit in front of someones house with my system playing??? What about motorcycles?? Of ambulence sirens?? Maybe they should turn those off so you can get your beauty sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdcutty Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 I have been pulled over for mine too, and I respect all time restriced noice ordinance laws. It was 4:30 in the afternoon when I was written a $50 fine for loud music. I am stuck in the middle of this argument cause I love my bass, but i also dont wanna be awoke by someone being an asshole.

Ryan from Ohio Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Its a matter of respect, end of story. Motorcycles with loud exhausts really cant be changed. There is no volume control on them Car stereo volume can be adjust, bass faded off, etc. Its people with NO RESPECT that brings a black eye to the car audio community and has guys like this aszhole come about: http://members.aol.com/mpwright9/boomcar.html Thats right. This guys sole life mission is to get rid of car audio altogether. While his propaganda has influenced some smaller towns similar laws are making it to bigger cities. Also note this d-bag is not alone in his fight. Again its people like addicted2bass and their totally lack of respect that brings this about. Like I said, boom responsibly!

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 x2 And I totally agree with the "going deaf by 20" thing. I've only got 1 subwoofer in my car (12" sealed box, 460w going to it) and that's plenty to shake me in my seat. I've been in friends cars that have had 2x 10 or 12" with big ported boxes and the pure volume level is too much for my ears to take. When I was a teenager I had my home system all jacked up with lots of big cheap speakers... sounded like shit but would make my ears ring. Now that I'm mid-20s I recently bought a nice set of Paradigm floor speakers... they can go pretty loud but I appreciate the sound quality much much more. Don't get me wrong, I like to listen loud every now and then... but theres a time and a place. Even with my mild bass in the car I still hit the steering wheel control button to lower it when I'm at an intersection. Plus if it's really busy traffic then loud music is distracting. The fact that you live in a small town doesn't help, not much you can do about it but be more carefull of where/when you play loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
