A bulldozer (roller) passes over these aligned mufflers. As soon as the bulldozer lowers, the mufflers stick to the road.

Noise pollution is a big problem

In addition to horns, modified mufflers are also a major cause of noise pollution. Especially on vehicles like the Bullet, people install modified mufflers, which produce a lot of noise. This causes a lot of problems for other people walking on the street. Apart from this, the trend of bursting firecrackers through vehicles has also increased. Many times naughty people do this in busy areas or under bridges. Accidents also occur due to this. To stop these incidents, Andhra Pradesh Police has taken this step.
