Show answer

Correct answer

  • CNo.No.
Explanation

Under the General Traffic Regulations, it is forbidden to drive motor vehicles and mopeds without an exhaust silencer. This protects the environment and reduces noise pollution. Vehicles without this device are considered unsafe and a nuisance to other road users. The rules state this ban clearly, so the correct answer is «No».
