Meanwhile I’m getting pulled over multiple times for my loud exhaust because my muffler fell off and I don’t have the money to fix it.
Then the cop pulling me over has to stop talking as a motorcycle drives by so loud he can’t even hear himself.
Compared to straight pipe, you would have a short pipe. Being so much closer to the engine, you’d get more noise. Even straight pipe dampens the noise a bit.
That’s because the law wasn’t made because rich assholes, but because broken exhausts, wether by design or by negligence, are a god damn nuisance.
And yet the people who’s cars are loud by design are largely ignored because fuck the poor.
“Hey I see your muffler is broken”
“Yeah I don’t have the money to fix it”
“Well now you’ll have even less money, here’s your $150 ticket”
A broken muffler sounds A LOT worse than a purposely thought out muffler delete
Yes yes, we’re all aware that something that inconveniences you for all of 5 seconds is worse than someone living at an income low enough to not allow them to fix a non essential part of their only source of transportation.
Or you can just choose to not use car.
