The Seattle City Attorney's Office said the so-called 'Belltown Hellcat' is subject to fines of $1,300 every day his car is not fixed.
The Seattle City Attorney 's Office filed a motion in court Friday alleging Miles Hudson, the so-called " Belltown Hellcat " driverand waking people up with his loud exhaust, has failed to respond to the city's lawsuit and is subject to $83,200 in penalties.
"Mr. Hudson has cultivated online infamy by flagrantly breaking Seattle's laws and waking his neighbors with excessive noise. It’s time for him to face the consequences of his actions. That’s why I have requested that the court find Mr. Hudson in default and award the City all applicable penalties,” City Attorney Ann Davison wrote in a statement.
A Seattle police officer, who is also an certified automotive technician, noted the exhaust of the Charger was illegally modified to backfire, creating an "exceedingly loud" noise that is equivalent to gunshots or fireworks. The officer noted he had seen and heard Hudson’s Charger in downtown Seattle multiple times.
