In practice this doesn’t happen, however, at least here in the UK.
Police are not issued with equipment to measure noise levels, and on a busy road it can be difficult to identify (provably and conclusively) which vehicles are making the noise.
Which is exactly why technology like these “noise cameras” are needed!
