Coal Rolling Is a Menacing Crime—And It's on the Rise

coal rolling happens when a driver of a diesel truck floods the engine with more fuel than it can efficiently process, emitting a thick black plume of exhaust across the road
14th paragraph

Thank you.
How do people do it? Drive along, turn off engine whilst rolling. Pump foot. Turn on engine?
-
-
And it's not enforced.
Cops will just watch it happen right in front of them and do nothing.
Meanwhile I'm getting pulled over for my broken exhaust on my shitty little 2000 Malibu.

This is why you file a report yourself with video to local and state authorities. In many states this is illegal and they do take action on reports.

How many potatoes/bananas does it take to clog a dirty vertical exhaust? Should we use pineapples instead?
-
I’ve seen exhausts big enough that a pineapple wouldn’t plug.
-
Whole durian fruit it is then. Got it.

How about a 750ml bottle? Weighted with some sort of liquid, of course, so it goes all the way down. They're pretty high up too, so you'll probably have to lob it in. You'll with a handle of some sort, maybe made of fabric, so you can get a nice lob throw and land it right in the stack.

Quick dry cement?

Hydraulic cement.
2 minute setting time.
Waterproof.
Expands to fill cracks.

Not condoning this but sugar in the gas tank or squirt brake fluid on the paint of the car, it'll eat through it.
-
Ooh! One of my favorites is slapping bologna on the car. Leave it and it will eat through perfect circles. Polka dot compensation truck. It's gotta stay for a few days tho.

I wonder what is pushing this back up to the list of shit these idiots are doing. I've seen it happen twice in as many days around the town I live in.
-
Take pics and report it: It's illegal.
-
Unfortunately where I live it's a some of those that work forces situation. It's far too red for anyone to do anything other than put me on watch for dissent.

Who’s gonna do something about it, the cops?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahhahaha
The cop is the one driving these and coal rolling you in the first place 😂
Anyway on an unrelated note, vehicle caltrops are incredibly easy to manufacture in any machine shop and, surprisingly, can be easily bought at many online vendors.
Definitely do NOT place them under the tires of parked lifted mega trucks with $20k of custom trim and exhaust. That would NOT be cool.

The Supreme Court just ruled 6-3 that it’s a legitimate form of political speech

The Supreme Court just rolled coal at me

Does anyone know if lighting them on fire is less pollution in the long run?
-
Yeah, but only if 'them' includes the truck and the owner.
-
Only one way to find out.
