NY Vehicle and Traffic Law 386 sets statewide vehicle noise limits (SLEEP Act effective 2022: 1,000 dollar fine for illegal mufflers). Nassau County Police enforce on county roads and in unincorporated areas.
The SLEEP Act (NY VTL 386, amended 2021) raised illegal-muffler fines to up to 1,000 dollars and authorized NY State Police and local police to ticket modified exhaust. Nassau County Police operate dedicated enforcement on parkways and county arterials including Hempstead Turnpike and Sunrise Highway. Street-takeover and unmuffled-motorcycle complaints in Wantagh, Massapequa, and the Long Beach Road corridor have driven targeted enforcement.
Modified-muffler ticket: up to 1,000 dollars. Repeat offenders can have the vehicle inspection sticker revoked.
