well next door to GA in bama thats how i ended up in jail and on probation..
of course i have a loud ass system, which you know is my fault so i take my punishment but it is the law, sound ordinance laws are dumb, but here in south alabama if its heard more than 50ft then its a $230-$400 ticket depending on how far they can hear you.. friend of mine was cited for 500ft..
reason is if an emergency vehicle is comming towards you, you wont be able to hear it. My arguement is i have eyes, mirrors, and a neck to turn my head in many directions, i can see them comming.. usually looking in mirrors for police anyway.. I know i sound stupid but i enjoy my music very much, very loud..

most cops arent bad about it and dont really enforce it, but hey 40 new rookies to the police department.

Anyway the reason my car was searched, and i advise you to be careful about too is because it was after 10pm (probable cause? i think not, they think differently) good luck with it
