On which types of roads is it prohibited to drive vehicles with an open exhaust or without an explosion silencer?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

It is strictly prohibited to drive with a so-called 'open exhaust' (without an explosion silencer) or with ineffective silencers on all types of public roads, whether urban or interurban. This rule, included in the General Vehicle Regulations, aims to avoid noise pollution and disturbance to other road users and residents. There are no exceptions for school zones or open highways; the vehicle must always comply with approved noise emission limits.
