In Moscow, drivers will begin to fine a new camera with a noise meter

This is a complex called “Ether”, which has already passed certification and is ready to install, writes Kommersant. With the help of an “broadcast”, which can measure the noise level of cars and motorcycles, the authorities want to fight too loud transport on the capital’s roads. The penalty will be from 5 to 30 thousand rubles, but neither the volume limits nor the terms of administration of sanctions have yet been announced.

“Air” is a 12-kilogram device with four directed microphones. They will be able to detect cars and motorcycles in a stream with a too loud exhaust or music. The noise source in the range from 60 to 120 decibels helps to determine the video module.

The marginal levels of noise, for the excess of which will be fined, the regional authorities will be able to choose on their own. The norms will be different for the day and night. The current limit, according to the technical regulations of the Customs Union on the safety of wheeled vehicles, are 96 decibels for cars and motorcycles.

However, before the “broadcast” begins work, we need amendments to the Code of Administrative Offenses. The bill introducing fines for noise from 5 to 30 thousand rubles was adopted in the first reading in the summer of 2023.

Last year, experts told why the project was stained. The point is just the complexity of the exact definition of the sound source, which the “ether” should cope with. But some experts are sure that mistakes are practically inevitable when using any modern automation.
