Is it safe to drive without a muffler?

the car will be fine but your friend might not get along with the police too well when they pull them over and give them a ticket for no muffler and too much noise.  more

The car will not bust into flames,however the reason the muffler (tail pipe) extends past the rear of the car is to vent CARBON MONOXIDE away from the passenger compartment.If your friend enjoys life-have it repaired ASAP.  more

It's not safe. There's a good chance of exhaust gasses getting into the inside of the car. You can do it for a while if you have to, ....but not for too long.  more

Your completely safe. Trust me, I've been driving around in my car with out a muffler for months, and I drive and 88' Camaro. So if my car is fine, anybody else is going to be fine too. It is loud and and you lose gas mileage. I recommend to get it fixed right a way. the only reason i haven't done mine is cause I'm a broke full time collage student, works full time, and live by myself. I need all the money I can get. lol.  more

The car won't catch fire, but sometimes with exhaust leaks, gasses that should be vented beind the car are released under the car- which can cause harm to people in the car- so no, it's not safe to drive, and it's illeagal  more
