Rolling Coal - VW puffer

[tcmeyers]

This is the first time I’ve been fumigated by a car instead of a muscle truck. Kept doing it after I “saved” too.

Biodefense mode on and then keep close to them so they keep doing it - nothing like watching someone spend money on me.

Moderately aggressive lane changes to stay in front of me convinced me otherwise.

If that person did that intentionally, I wouldn't even know. Ignorance is a bliss

We get too many yahoos every new semester who think coal rolling is OK. I wonder how many of them know over 30% of the professors have EVs? I often see trucks I know did coal rolling in the city impound lot.

Is it too much to hope that they could get impounded FOR rolling coal?

I'm pretty sure complaints of coal rolling lead to inspections that found the mods. Impounding would be for ensuring the mods get removed and fines paid.

We don't have to get yearly smog checks, but one is still required to keep the emissions system functional. Looks like defeat devices are a $5000 fine each, and they fine both the vehicle owner and the installer.

In case you want to report people to the EPA.

I can attest it works. There was a big black truck in my neighborhood that would do that to us. About a month after reporting them, the exhaust system was suddenly gone from the truck.
