'should be between 82 and 89 dB'!!!

Oh - so you can be done for being quieter than 82 as well as more than 89!! Never heard of a car being too quiet. Doesn't say much for these Prius-mobiles, and milk floats. They should really throw the book at them - far too quiet..

Also, where did they invent this 89dB maximum. They had better inform the SVA / IVA staff that they have been getting it wrong at about 100dB.

The wind and the sea is probably louder than 82 at times - go and ticket them, you numpties.
