NY Gov Signs “SLEEP” Act Banning Loud Exhausts
|
|
New York State Governor Kathy Hochul has signed the SLEEP Act into law in New York State. That, if you’re wondering, stands for"Stop Loud and Excessive Exhaust Pollution.” This law increases penalties for illegally modified mufflers on all vehicles, not just motorcycles.
Fines, which used to be $250 per violation, increase to $1000 under the new law. State inspection stations will be required to verify motorcycles’ exhausts are legal.
Specifically, an excerpt from the bill itself states it is now “illegal to sell, offer for sale, or install a cut-out, bypass or similar device for the muffler or exhaust system of a motor vehicle or motorcycle.” Any shops or inspection stations that are found to be in “willful violation” of this law three times within eighteen months will lose their inspection and/or operating
certification.

Since its inception in 2001, the games have grown in popularity and over $4 million has been raised for
charity. Yes, $4 MILLION!
Let’s start at the beginning and take a look at Little Fenway. It’s incredible, uplifting, inspirational, and just may be the best thing you see and read all day. Enjoy!
