Ticket for loud exhaust

[Sundar]

So I got a $300 ticket for a loud exhaust. I have two resonators and a cat 3 " piping. The license officer told me to Rev my engine, after revving up till 5500rpm repeatedly he kept saying to Rev harder I told him I'm not over revving my engine. And I said it's a turbocharged engine so I can't put a silencer that it will back pressure and fail the turbo. He just say it to loud and walk off. Is he justified to charge me? Aren't they supposed to have something to test the noise level?

What engine?

[zoom rader]

Just pay de ticket and move along.
Hope you know your suppsed to inform licence office of any changes to engine.
Also your insurance company needs to know of engine mods that you have if it is not the original engine.

You should count yourself lucky it was just one ticket you got, and seeing it was $300 it was the lesser of the two.
It is an offence for a vehicle to have a noisy exhaust and also there is a separate offence for having a vehicle with no silencer fitted.

So humour us, what vehicle and engine? Unless it's a custom one off engine that was manufactured for you i'm sure the same engine in a stock application wouldn't be noisy by design so why would yours "I said it's a turbocharged engine so I can't put a silencer that it will back pressure and fail the turbo"

Honest serious question here, what's the point of the MGW/TARE sign?

Max weight the vehicle can carry. Beyond the tape had a nice lil vid with it where a driver with a van carrying a tractor was ticketed cuz the tractor exceeded the weight the van allowed to carry.

Be thankful our laws in Trinidad don't include emission tests because we wouldn't be able to have the exhausts we have in the first place.

What about #2 (not my fault is has a distant connection to toots) where you see 'T' registered vans running taxi/playing maxi/pulling bull like its nothing and it blatantly clear they are not licensed to do so and still occupy a space on the road.

What happens if one of them decided to crash into you, would their insurance pay up?
