A new Florida statute goes into effect July 1, that makes it unlawful for anyone in a vehicle to turn up their radio too loud. According to this law, audio coming from a vehicle that can be heard from a distance of 25 feet or more can result in a traffic infraction of $114. This law is clearly geared toward the urban community and gives officers reasons to perform unwanted searches. This law will also affect the car and bike culture and most importantly land many business owners of music shops out of business. More than likely if you’re playing loud music you’re either cruising down an highway or interstate and will only affect the people and cars around you for 30 seconds to a minute at the most. This law is ridiculously absurd and if you agree please sign this petition !!!

Thank you in advance,
