...gawd help us are we road users not persecuted enough?

if it shuts up some of the mobile boom boxes, I'm all for it.

[Paigntonian]

Can't help but think the world would be a better place without cars.

[lady-janine]

A lot of us would be completely house-bound Paignton.

Would all the ensuing mental health issues be worth that?

As a driver I don't feel persecuted.
Loud cars are not just a noise nuisance, they are a danger.

I've never imagined you as a boy racer, somehow or other, TTT ;-)

Mike bike gets a comment every MOT. But it is legal, even though very loud.

A very loud red sports car hammered past me 2 days ago when I was walking my dog, he almost had a fit with fear. Absolutely terrified him. All because of a complete...... Well I can't say it here. A 30 zone, looked like 70+. Oh and yesterday an idiot on a loud off road bike tearing up the park near old folks homes, today the grass park is all ripped up. Boils my.... Can't say that either!

Law abiding citizens have nothing to fear.

I thought he drove a Jag.

So when you exhaust manages to fall off in the vicinity of one of these things you wont complain at the fine then?

The problem with cameras is they dont take circumstances into account.

I say Good - one of the better proposals.

chico; "I've never imagined you as a boy racer, somehow or other, TTT ;-) " - I'm a Tory Gent racer if you don't mind! I only have one bike that could possibly be over the decibel limit, I had to bolt on another exhaust for the MOT! The rest of the fleet are fine.

[ToraToraTora]

14:37: "I thought he drove a Jag. " - more than one vehicle is allowed hoppy!

[vulcan42]

It's another step in encouraging people to buy electric.

//I say Good - one of the better proposals.//

Really, dont you think they have more pressing things to do rather than implement more potential revenue raisers?

And plod certainly have more pressing matters to attend to like burglary's and vandalism. Still doubt the arrogant git Schapps will care one way or another.

[youngmafbog]

The number of people with illegal exhausts is minimal.

The ominous part is 'whether that be an unnecessary rev of the engine'.

[Hopkirk]

If my exhaust fell off I wouldn't continue to drive it.

Mind you, my car has no exhaust system.

[Zacs-Master]

Mine neither, Hoppy.
