this country wastes it time, enegry, efforts and money on creating random stupid law's, yet the real crimes and criminals roam free doing what they like.

cops near mine have recently given some guy I know fines for just having a non standard exhaust! It's not even very loud!

i think it cant be over 100 cecibels or something like that, but if the exhaust was on at MOT time then its perfectly legal, tho the time on noise is probally why you got the fine.

There is a law on exhausts being over a sertain DB level. There is also a law on using your horn between 11pm and 7am.

mot failure if too loud too
has to be somet like 110or 120+ at least though id say as thats the noise pollution for household noise before complaints can be made.
found out cause my old mate was a drummer an his neighbours couldnt touch him if he used brushes instead of sticks lol
