The Borough Council of Dauphin, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, finds as a fact that the operation of an engine brake, also known as a “jake brake,” on a gasoline or diesel powered motor vehicle not equipped with exhaust mufflers, or equipped with defective or modified exhaust mufflers, so as to create excessive noise through the use of said engine brake, adversely affects the public health and welfare of the residents of the Borough of Dauphin, and therefore, is a nuisance in fact.
