So allow me to break down and further explain Petes rant.
One, you are not allowed to loiter in a mall parking lot making exhaust noises. this will lead to rent-a-cops telling you to leave or calling the cops. And let me tell you, a modified exhaust is NOT LEGAL in WA.
I present you with RCW 46.37.390
(1) Every motor vehicle shall at all times be equipped with a muffler in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise, and no person shall use a muffler cut-out, bypass, or similar device upon a motor vehicle on a highway.
(3) No person shall modify the exhaust system of a motor vehicle in a manner which will amplify or increase the noise emitted by the engine of such vehicle above that emitted by the muffler originally installed on the vehicle, and it shall be unlawful for any person to operate a motor vehicle not equipped as required by this subsection, or which has been amplified as prohibited by this subsection. A court may dismiss an infraction notice for a violation of this subsection if there is reasonable grounds to believe that the vehicle was not operated in violation of this subsection.
Two, that mall is in a residential area with houses and apartments, i can assure you the people who live there will not appreciate a bunch of cars showing up making a ton of noise. which leads us back to cops showing up and handing out tickets.
Three, since those roads are residential, the limit on them is 35, if you're going to have people drive hard so you can hear the exhaust note, you will quickly be over the limit in second gear. Again cops show up and if they feel real inclined, they can hand out a ticket for too hard of acceleration (should someone really wring the car out in first gear).

i have meet some cops in Lynnwood and Georgia before , last time i have my interior light on driving at night , just like my avatar show and i meet around 20+ cops(West Seattle PD and Lynnwood PD) and non of them say anything , i think they just think it's pretty cool , till 1 time i got pull over and the cops say : hey, your interior light is illegal , then i say : what? is it ? how come the bus have it ? , the cop say : what bus ? , i say : community bus , he say : Hm................................., i say: u know i got this over 2 months and u are the first one to pull me over , cop say : that's fine and give me the ticket . I still do it some time when i like , not because i'm a crazy guy but i my thought is speeding is illegal but people still do it everyday ,right ? So it's same thing for me , i know if i got pull over i gonna get the ticket and i willing to pay for it .
you say it's " NOT LEGAL in WA. " to put "modified exhaust" , honestly i don't know it and i thought it's legal , Every Weekend i drive to West Seattle and over there i Always see cop and Sooo... many cars with "modified exhaust" so i thought it's legal , unless NO One give a crap and when i say No One that's included the cops , i living i apartment now and me and my neighbors have loud exhaust (my neighbor exhaust car heard a mile away) and cops parking in
our apartment 3 day a week and never say anything about it.
and Totem Lake Mall is don't have much house close to it , you can look it up on google map . |
