Ok so my friend has an early 00's Ford F250 7.3 Powerstroke and he told me today while he was driving to school a teacher was behind him and when he drove away from a stop sign a lot of smoke came out of the exhaust and the teacher stayed there for a bit until the smoke cleared. Then when they arrived at school the teacher yelled at my friend and said "what was that for!? Why was your truck making so much smoke!?" And he said in response "What? It's not my fault I didn't do it on purpose" (His truck is tuned for performance so that's why it made alot of smoke.) So the teacher said "Yes you did!" Even though he clearly didn't So later he gets called to the office where the teacher and the principal are talking. The teacher told the principal "I couldn't breathe and I started coughing and now I feel all dirty!" So the principal gave him a detention and told him not to drive to school anymore. He told me he still would though.
I think this is complete horse shit for 3 reasons. 1. Here in PA, diesel trucks are exempt from emissions. 2. The street the truck emitted smoke on WASN'T EVEN ON SCHOOL PROPERTY! 3. Nowhere in my school's handbook does it say "For kids who drive to school, diesel trucks may not emit a lot of smoke."
What do you all think?
