Sec. 18-110. Exhaust system in good working order required.[248]
(a) No person shall drive and no owner of a motor vehicle
shall permit or allow the operation of any owned vehicle within
the city unless such motor vehicle is equipped with an exhaust
system of a type installed as standard factory equipment,
or comparable to that designed for use upon the particular
vehicle as standard factory equipment, in good working
order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual
noise, or annoying smoke and escape of excessive gas,
steam or oil. An exhaust system shall not be deemed to prevent
excessive or unusual noise if it permits or allows the
escape of noise in excess of that permitted by the standard
factory equipment exhaust system of private passenger motor
vehicles or trucks of standard make.
(b) The term "exhaust system," as used in this section,
means all the parts of a motor vehicle through which the
exhaust passes after leaving the engine block. (Code 1159,
§ 18-110; 6-21-65, § 13.)
