I'm confused a little bit

    Right so, back late last year i had a corolla which was loud but not stupidly stupidly loud, Gaurds kept pulling me over all the time in it, And one gaurd in particular kept pulling me over about the license plates, yellow main lights and how loud it was, Now White and yellow lights are 100% legal, The license plates had the county name and irl and a better font so it would be easier to read them, The gaurd said he's bringing me to court for them and never done a deicble meter reading on the car at all and it's not loud when it's stopped. Like how will this work out as i'm expecting to have a summons to court over it? I know for a fact the car wasn't over 100 decibles, Subaru's are 99 on the decible and it was nowhere near how loud they are.

    If your hearing was damaged by the loud exhaust, it might not sound stupidly stupidly loud to you. You could remove the scrote cannon and put on a decent exhaust and hope that stops you getting pulled in all the time. Any chance of a pic?

    There are very specific regulations for lights and reg plates. You don't get to decide what font is better, you comply with the law. Same goes for lights. You should post in the motoring forum and ask how legal your setup is.

    Perhaps your driving was bringing them to their attention?
    The license plates had the county name and irl and a better font so it would be easier to read them

    If you're not using the font that is prescribed by law then you are going to be pulled up on it.
    know for a fact the car wasn't over 100 decibles, Subaru's are 99 on the decible and it was nowhere near how loud they are.

    How do you know this for a fact? 99db is the legal limit according to RSA.ie.
