Road Vehicle (construction and use) Regs 1986 were mentioned:
Regulation 54 - "every exhaust system and silencer must be maintained in good and efficient working order and shall not after the date of manufacture or be altered so as to increase the noise made by the escape of exhaust gases".
Regulation 97 makes it an offence "to use a vehicle in such a manner as to cause any excessive noise which could have been avoided by the exercise of reasonable care by the driver".
Enforcement of these requirements is by the police and in the case of maintenance, at MOT
So if you change your exhaust and its louder than standard you can be fined. 
Is this true? |
Hee hee.................so according to that our stubby is ok, but all those who have cut their original cans up are very, very bad boys
