LOUD SIDE PIPES ARE SAFER...
As there is no temptation to use mobile phone will driving as you can't hear what the hell the other person is saying...although I suppose you could still text.
I remember cruising through the centre of the city here years ago in the old Cobra. Drove down one street and got stopped at the end at a set of lights, you could hear the car alarms wailing behind, in the mirror you could see the indicators/lights flashing on the cars I had passed, it was an amazing sight. Doesn't happen anywhere else, the tall buildings echo/enhance the noise.
