Does your community receive ongoing complaints about loud modified vehicles?
Do you feel loud vehicles diminish the quality of life for citizens living in your community?
Do you want a plan in place should street racers / sideshows visit your community?
Do you want to do something proactive, but feel you lack training and the proper equipment?
Pipe Down provides officers with 8 hours of professional training giving them the confidence they need to subjectively determine when a noise violation is occurring and to have the skills to objectively measure the decibels of vehicles that are out of compliance.
Officers overwhelmingly endorse this training system because they get the training needed to:
There have been decibel limits on vehicles for years. But until now there has not been a workable solution to measure the decibels in a manner that could be proven in court.
Pipe DownTM was created to solve this problem with training that's easy to understand and equipment that can be set up quickly and efficiently. By combining training and the right equipment, Police and Sheriff Departments have successfully increased their ability to issue vehicular noise citations that stand up in court.

Pipe Down gear comes in a compact case (9½” x

verify the decibels, a meter calibrator to ensure
accuracy, a tripod and other needed equipment
to fairly measure the noise violation using
principles approved by the Society of Automotive
Engineers (S.A.E.). See the full list of equipment here.
