Traffic Tuesday: When it’s too much noise

By Officer Jenni Eby
Wyoming Department Department of Public Safety

A couple weeks ago, we talked about the general noise ordinance. Did you know that there’s a separate ordinance that addresses music from vehicles? It falls under “disturbing the peace”, and the ordinance divides the day into 7 a.m.-7 p.m. (daytime hours) and 7 p.m.-7 a.m. (nighttime hours).

This week’s Traffic Tuesday question: Fill in the blanks! 
It is unlawful for any person to disturb the public peace and quiet by operating or allowing a sound system of a vehicle to produce a clearly audible sound at a distance of ___ feet from the vehicle during daytime hours and ___ feet from the vehicle during night time hours.

  1. 25 feet, 10 feet
  2. 50 feet, 25 feet
  3. 75 feet, 40 feet
  4. 100 feet, 50 feet

Check back on Thursday to find out the answer.
