Shhh! New York City is cracking down on noise: New cams to catch loud drivers
New York City is combating excessive noise with the use of noise cameras. These cameras are activated when loud sounds above 85 decibels are detected and are being used to ticket drivers who violate noise regulations. The city has purchased nine additional cameras and plans to install at least five cameras per borough. The City Council is expected to vote on a bill that would establish a citywide noise camera program. While the technology aims to reduce noise pollution, concerns about privacy and data access have been raised.
