    Noise/Muffler/Environmental Tickets

    Lucky for my GF

    got slap with 3 tickets (been driving the same car for 2 years now no issues until today)

    HTA75(4) - Noise
    HTA75(1) - Muffler
    HTA22(3) - Environmental Protection act ??

    Now I gotta find ways to fight them and waste time...

    Well, I'm not sure what muffler is she has but it is aftermarket...but not really that loud compared to my 2bro...but yeah...

    Gotta go get a DB test or something?

    As for the enironmental act - wtf is that? (she did not remove her CAT from the car)

    HTA75(4)
    Unnecessary noise
    A person having the control or charge of a motor vehicle shall not sound any bell, horn or other signalling device so as to make an unreasonable noise, and a driver of any motor vehicle shall not permit any unreasonable amount of smoke to escape from the motor vehicle, nor shall the driver at any time cause the motor vehicle to make any unnecessary noise, but this subsection does not apply to a motor vehicle of a municipal fire department while proceeding to a fire or answering a fire alarm call. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 75 (4).

    HTA75(1)
    Every motor vehicle or motor assisted bicycle shall be equipped with a muffler in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise and excessive smoke, and no person shall use a muffler cut-out, straight exhaust, gutted muffler, hollywood muffler, by-pass or similar device upon a motor vehicle or motor assisted bicycle. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 75 (1).

    Because she had the catalytic converter removed, when installing that aftermarket exhaust. It took me a while to find it, but....

    Can't see you getting out of HTA75(4) - Noise HTA75(1) - Muffler
    since it's Clearly an Aftermarket Exhaust Labelled Off Road Use Only

    As for HTA22(3) - Environmental Protection act There's a reason they call them CAT back Exhausts
    So that one you may be able to show Pics and Argue

    Well it was either removed or the officer decided that he wasn't going to crawl under the car to find out, and to let her PROVE that it was still present.
