Noise in the city
In a university town, things can get noisy especially after a football game, but the Clemson police chief says the most common noise complaints his department receives are vehicle noise. Chief Campos points to the following section of state law: “Every motor vehicle shall at all times be equipped with a muffler in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise and annoying smoke and no person shall use a muffler cutout, bypass or similar device upon a motor vehicle upon a highway. The engine and power mechanism of every motor vehicle shall be so equipped and adjusted to prevent the scape of excessive fumes and smoke.” Campos added this: “If you are experiencing issues of excessive noise, call the police department’s non-emergency number at 864-624-2000.
