Personally I think trying to impress your friends with a loud ass system is fine. Just do it in a parking lot somewhere, thats what I do even though my system sucks :thumbsup , Either that or do it in the day time, I mean 1 am, thats just to annoy people, there arent tons of kids drivin around at 1 that you can impress.

bahhhh he must have been hittin like 140 - 150 for it to be that loud, I turn mine up the whole way and drive past cops so i guess it isnt that bad. He shouldnt have to remove it he should just keep getting fined. Suspending his license was a bit extreme.

Personally id think it would be to loud to listen too if it was bugging other people that bad.

thats pretty stupid, i suppose he was just driving around with his windows down and had it cranked but i dont think its right that he has to remove it. its like getting a speeding ticket and have to take off your performance parts if you have any.

ALEXANDRIA, La. - A judge has ordered a teenager who blasted his pickup truck stereo to remove all non-factory installed sound equipment for violating a noise ordinance.

Calvin Bennett Jr., 18, got the loud-music ticket in 2004 but missed his initial court appearance. Last Monday, he was arrested for contempt of court and spent the night in jail. He appeared Tuesday before district Judge Thomas Yeager on the loud-music citation.

The teen pleaded guilty, got a 90-day sentence suspended and was given probation. As a condition of probation, he had to turn in his drivers license for 30 days and remove his stereo equipment.

Yeager said he ordered the sentence to try to deter young adults from disturbing their communities with loud music. "It is a big problem but one that has a solution," he said.

The Pineville and Alexandria police departments stay busy fielding loud-music complaints. Both cities have ordinances addressing loud noise, including drivers playing their radios too loudly.

"The sentence isn't going to stop me playing music," Bennett said. "I love my music."
