GENERAL REFERENCES
Vehicles and traffic — See Ch. 268.
"Engine-braking" shall mean the use or operation of any mechanical exhaust
device designed to aid in the braking, decompression or deceleration of any
motor vehicle which results in excessive, loud, unusual or explosive noise
from such vehicle.
It shall be unlawful for the driver of any motor vehicle or truck to
use or operate or cause to be used or operated, at any time and on any road
within the Borough of Netcong, any mechanical exhaust or decompression device
which results in the practice known as "engine braking."
The provisions of this chapter shall not apply to the application of
engine braking:
The Borough is hereby authorized to post at reasonable locations within
the Borough signs indicating the prohibition of engine braking.
Unless another penalty is expressly provided by New Jersey statute,
any person convicted of a violation of this chapter shall be subject to a
fine of not more than $1,250 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding 90 days
or a period of community service for not more than 90 days, or any combination
thereof. Any person who is convicted of a violation of this chapter within
one year of the date of a previous violation for the same offense and who
was fined for the previous violation shall be sentenced by the court to an
additional fine as a repeat offender. The additional fine imposed by the court
upon a person for a repeated offense shall not exceed $1,250 for each repeat
violation, and shall be calculated separately from the fine imposed for the
initial violation.
