train horns illegal?

[drew]

i'm in PA but an NJ answer will do


i've got a 150psi compresser powering 162dB air horns on my explorer, i was pulled over once but the officer just lectured me and said if he heard them again he would "Arrest you and your friend and have your car towed"

is there any ticket he could actually issue? or was he just busting my balls

[The Law]

§ 4535. Audible warning devices.
(a) General rule.--Every motor vehicle operated on a highway shall be equipped with a horn or other audible warning device of a type approved in regulations of the department.

(b) Certain sound devices prohibited.--Except as specifically provided in this part or by regulations of the department, no vehicle operated on a highway shall be equipped with a siren, bell, whistle or any device emitting a similar sound or any unreasonably loud or harsh sound.

(c) Exceptions.--This section shall not apply to any special mobile equipment, commercial implement of husbandry or implement of husbandry that is not so equipped by the original manufacturer.

Aside from the fact that you could potentially startle someone and cause an accident...
