All motorcycle's and high performance cars new and old if you have a modified exhaust you can get a ticket for $1000 and one point on your license . This is not a fix it ticket , law says you will pay the fine, WOW.....

This is NOT a emissions issue , any vehicle making above 95-decibel will be ticketed....any year, make or model.....

I don't care ! I will never go to Commiefornia again anyway.

as always they have to PROVE you are above 95db-the CHP has had roving safety and DB test crews for years, but not every car has that capability. OTOH-as an older human wearing Hearing aids, many of the extremely loud Harleys etc completely immobilize me when walking outdoors and I know I speak for a majority of the population-too loud is too loud! It is unlikely anyone will be cited without the DB proof

It seems to me that an uncorked stocker is between 92 and 96 decibels at 50 feet. If you re running around in a street vehicle or custom bike that's louder than that, you're pretty obviously asking for it. When I was trying hard to both grow up(and not really grow up), they passed laws about glass packs and Corvair turbo mufflers.Just having them got you a fix it ticket. In 1974 I bought a '62 Impala hardtop with two rather old glass packs on it, got written up about the second week I owned the car,bought two new head pipes, two stock 2" inlet/outlet mufflers and some real nice short tailpipes with turndowns. We put all that stuff in the trunk to show any subsequent traffic officer in the event of another traffic stop regarding the glass packs, then went out one Friday night and indulged in the act of coasting up to a light in gear with the key switched off and then turning it on to produce a backfire. We blew off one tail pipe, and blew the other side muff and tailpipe clear off, so the next day I drove the car to the gas station I worked at,installed the new muffs and tailpipes and head pipes, tossed the old stuff in the dumpster, and instant silence. It was so much nicer having a quiet car, and no more problems with the local constabulary. Leave it to calipornia to add one more fee, fine, or tax onto our daily lives to run up the cost of living.

What's wrong with being fined if you're too loud? Are there a ton of vehicles out there over 95 dB?

Re: Omg!!!! If have a motor vehicle in california please rea
 

I would say there is a signifigant amount based on the noise in my neighborhood-which is exactly how these laws come about. I have a neighbor with a new 18 Mustang Gt with the factory cut out software-it's LOUD! we are both unsure if it would pass the test and then whose responsibility is it? Ford manufactured it that way-I suppose since the driver can choose that setting, it becomes the drivers issue

That could be a fun court battle, since the law specifically mentions modified exhaust. If it is 100% bone stock but still too loud, does the law apply?

Re: Omg!!!! If have a motor vehicle in california please rea
 

From what you're saying it's not modified but it's a factory exhaust system so I guess it's legal.

What about stereo / radio noise pollution ?
