He could just drive normally and his car would never reach the noise level for the ticket. Dude is intentionally driving to make noise. Similar to how bikes can Rev hard to be loud or just drive normally and be less loud.

He states in the article he was slowing down when hitting the area the sound camera was in.

Either way either make the cars illegal or deal. You can't arbitrarily decide a car is illegal at a given moment in time. I get that people are annoyed with the sounds, but that's one of the deals of living in a city. You know how many sirens go by in those area?

Idk if I would believe a dude who got 2 more tickets that same day for speeding in a slow zone and running a red light.
