    There is no contradiction. Just because the vehicle is licensed for street use doesn’t give the owner permission to operate it in ways that violates the law.

      Or at all? Because he wasn’t doing anything unusual. He wasn’t racing, or speeding even. Just driving normally.

        Nothing unusual? On the same day he got the noise ticket, he received tickets for running a red light and speeding in a school zone.

          If that was at the same time and place as the noise system was triggered, that might matter.

        You sure about that?

        According to city violation data aggregated by the popular website How’s My Driving NY, Aquilino did receive two tickets on that same day in the West Village for blowing through a red light and speeding in a school zone.

        He says he was just driving normally but I get the feeling he may be at the very least stretching the truth.

          Possibly. But we don’t know if that was the case at the location of the noise monitoring.
