Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The reduction of noise pollution in heavy vehicles does not depend solely on mechanical elements such as silencers, sound-absorbing panels or engine enclosures. Driving style plays a decisive role: avoiding sudden accelerations, staying in high gears whenever possible and driving smoothly and with anticipation noticeably lowers the decibels emitted by the engine and the rolling of the tires. On the contrary, using the horn without a real emergency is expressly prohibited by the regulations, and driving with the music at excessive volume causes annoyance and reduces the driver's concentration.
