Just like the safety blitz on trucks, until they found that 99% of the trucks they checked fail the test. Then they realize that pulling all these unsafe trucks off the road would kill the Ontario economy. The politicians cave in to big businesses and turned a blind eye to the whole things. Last I heard, people are still getting injured or killed by flying truck wheels. When they catch those 86 drivers with modified muffler, this is what they will do to you! be warned and book an appointment with your proctologist in advance if you have UEL headers or aftermarket exhaust! |

This is a very real possibility. I have on many occasion gathered lots of positive attention from the gay community.

But it's not a play on words. REPLACING a muffler is not MODIFYING it. It's replacing it. 2 different verbs with 2 different meanings. The backup argument I would make is that any other interpretation of this law is effectively making it illegal to manufacture aftermarket exhaust parts - whether OEM replacement or performance. No way that would EVER fly in a court of law, and there is no way industry would let it. To do otherwise would single handedly put all Meineke & Midas franchises out of business. |

They are not stopping anyone from manufacturing aftermarket parts but you just have to manufacture parts that are road legal? Its never ok to make parts that are not road legal as defined in the HTA. You will be humiliated in court by the district attorney and get a good lecture from the JP And manufacturers are not going to get entangled in lawsuits, they just want to make money and this is not the way to go. They will simply manufacture parts that are within the regulations or slap a "for off road use only" disclaimer on it. |

I would love to see the judge's reaction to somebody walking in court and saying "but I didn't modify the muffler I just changed it to something else so it is a replacement". Like going in and saying "I didn't steal that candy bar I just moved it from the store's possession to mine without paying" They have heard all the "interpretation" and attempted wording rationalizations before and will not fall for it.

In that case you have modified THE EXHAUST not modified THE MUFFLER. Words matter when it comes to laws and legislation. Very much so. |

Sounds like you know zero lawyers and have never been involved in a legal dispute in your life. I deal with legislation every day at work. Your take on this is not correct. |

Not going to argue it anymore since your theory is just simply dumb.
