That’s because the law wasn’t made because rich assholes, but because broken exhausts, wether by design or by negligence, are a god damn nuisance.

“Hey I see your muffler is broken”
“Yeah I don’t have the money to fix it”
“Well now you’ll have even less money, here’s your $150 ticket”

Ah, yes, in my rural area that would mean walking or biking 200+ miles per day just for work and even if I was capable of that it doesn’t solve the problem of not being able to bring my tools so I can work which weigh hundreds if not a thousand pounds.
And there aren’t buses around here, not that it would solve the problem of getting my tools around. I’m all for saving the environment and establishing smaller, walkable cities but it doesn’t negate the need for automobiles - yet.
