Reply to "New CA Exhaust laws"

Arizona may not be looking better.  Years ago in Phoenix I was driving a stock Torino Cobra and had just had the muffler replaced a couple of weeks earlier.  I was cited for a noise violation.  I went to court and the judge explained to me that Phoenix has no decibel limit and if you are cited for excessive noise then you are automatically guilty because it is the officers judgement.  Same reason lawyers advise you not to take a roadside sobriety test.   I got off without a fine because I could show the dated receipt from MIdas for the muffler installation two weeks prior to the stop.  Last I heard Phoenix also has the "exhibition of power" law where you don't have to be speeding, just accelerating faster than the cop likes or chirp the tires.
