What is even unnecessary noise and what is considered necessary. He tested my dB and asked me to rev my car half of redline, no where in the MVA specifies that is the procedure, along with coupled with the fact the testing done in a non-controlled environment. Literally on one of the busiest roads in Vancouver, said my exhaust exceeds the 83dB limit. Told me to rev half of my vehicle redline and I said my redline is lower, then rev half of that. Also the fact you can't leave the vehicle to see how "far" they putting the dB meter to test. The testing is procedure is flawed as he's literally can make up whatever he wants and you can't dispute the Vi. I ain't no inspector for cars, but what is the proper procedure for dB testing? I've heard of examples of what he's doing is asking cars pulled over to revving to redline, and then half for me (no consistency).

Clear side markers, I can't seem to find on MVA it says it has to be "amber"?

His partner with him was at least nice about it as he offered to waive 2 of the 3 fines off as I had a clean driving record and these are easily fixable things; however, I would have to do so in court. The part that annoys me the most is, his partner multiple times said to me, "look, these are all easily fixable thing", if you know that, why are you giving me a Vi box 2 in the back of my mind. Clean driving record (road star) & being cooperative/nice won't yield a slap on the wrist with this assclown, still have to go through the hassle of Vi. opportunity.

That’s why that report at the top of this page is such a slap in the face
