It is illegal for ice cream trucks to play music.

Status: Still Enforced / On the Books

The Law Explained

Noise ordinances can be ruthless, and in Indianola, the familiar, cheerful jingles of an approaching ice cream truck were deemed a public nuisance. Vendors are required to sell their frozen treats in absolute silence. It makes it considerably harder for kids to know when the bomb pops have arrived.
