What behavior should a motorcycle rider adopt to reduce the noise produced by their vehicle and avoid noise pollution?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

To minimize noise pollution, smooth and efficient riding is essential. The correct answer is to avoid sudden acceleration, as revving the engine abruptly (whether stationary or moving) unnecessarily raises the engine RPMs and spikes the decibel levels emitted. Regarding the incorrect options: Riding using the lowest possible gear: This is incorrect. Using low gears forces the engine to run at higher revolutions per minute (RPM) to maintain speed, which significantly increases both noise and fuel consumption. The ideal practice is to ride in the highest gear possible. Riding with an open exhaust: This is strictly prohibited. The exhaust pipe must have an effective and approved silencer (muffler). Riding with an open exhaust (without a silencer) increases noise exponentially and is subject to fines.
