Correct answer

They may not travel if noise exceeds regulatory limits under article 7. They must also meet gas and smoke limits and requirements for exhaust systems where fitted. Exhaust emissions within the limits do not themselves breach the rule. Lack of a spare wheel does not always prohibit travel: regulatory alternatives may exist. An electric vehicle is not exempt from its applicable noise limits.
