Loud motorcycle bill moves forward
Maine is one big step closer to outlawing loud motorcycles.
Lawmakers are set to take up a bill that would make changing motorcycle exhaust systems illegal. Legislators say it's one of the most common complaints they hear about from drivers.
The bill would require bikers to display the inspection stickers on their license plates that show the exhaust systems have not been changed to make them louder.
Members of Maine's Transportation Committee told our media partners at the Kennebec Journal that they receive more complaints about loud motorcycles than any other issue.
Bikers could face a fine up to $137 for having exhaust systems that are too loud.
Lawmakers say that the bill could go into effect this summer. Loud motorcycle bill moves forward
