You wouldn't have to say anything because it's nowhere in the vehicle code. You wouldn't get a ticket in the end of all his/her bitching and moaning. They can make up whatever roadside stories they want but in the end, unless it's in the VC or PC, it doesn't matter.

Of course for most of us, they can find something legit to issue a ticket for.

Test pipes are a $25,000 federal fine. Ask me how I know.

Which is the biggest crock of bullsheet I've ever heard of. The planet is currently in a carbon dioxide deficit! We need carbon dioxide to breath. Plants need it to grow and convert it to oxygen. The government has everyone believing that it's such an evil bad thing which is why they are shutting down coal power plants and imposing such heavy taxes (and fines in the case of vehicles running test pipes etc.)

Again with the revenue collection.

BINGO! We have a winner.

Whether right or wrong, you run the risk of a cop pulling you over. Maybe you have nothing to hide, done nothing wrong, but you still open yourself up to being cited for something you might otherwise would not be cited for.

At the very least, you could be spending 20 - 30 minutes on the side of the road.

The consensus here is that you will ultimately prevail, but is it worth it? Like I originally said, I flash to warn other drivers, but am very careful of when and where.
