For a vehicle first used on or after 1 August 1973, a sound emitted by the horn must be
*a constant note
*continuous or uniform
*not harsh or grating.
In other words, perfectly legal for road use as long as they're the normal type, not two-tone or playing a tune.

hi straight forward answer is definite if the vehicle would be pushed in any respect on the wide-unfold public highway. purely the emergency centers are allowed to much greater wholesome them, working or no longer. one way around it could be in case you should discover Yellow ones that are criminal to apply on the wide-unfold public highway which are available in in the two Blue and Yellow then you certainly ought to alter the covers once you get off highway ? In answer to the Air horns, you pass away the unique horn outfitted. then you greater wholesome the Air horns with it is very own swap, wiring and relay so for you to use the Air once you pick for them. The criminal requirement is for the traditional horn to artwork while examined for the MOT. and while required on the line. no person from the MOT centre is going to record you for setting up them. I did this some years in the past on a motor motorbike as no person heard the traditional horn ( Mine replaced right into a 2 horn one yet they sounded on the comparable time. )so I looked into the legality then. the main situation is that in case you desire to greater wholesome ones like the emergency centers wherein case it could be unlawful to apply them on the line. As for the ice cream you will probable discover that the motor vehicle might must be registered as a LGV extremely than a private/gentle products which will then require approximately £4 hundred a year highway tax? so which you will end, Do the two yet use purely while no longer on the wide-unfold public highway. Which sounds like what you pick for to do. personalize a vehicle to an emergency one for shows. Years in the past interior america of a there replaced into somebody who geared up an comparable police vehicle to the LAPD and he saved getting charged each-time he drove everywhere and began a motor vehicle paint save and claimed the LAPD stood for something like Levy Andrews Paint branch and not for Los Angles Police branch.

Air horns, i.e. a compressor with trumpets are legal in UK, so long as they don't play different tones separately, or tunes.
If they alternate like a cop car or play 'la cucaracha', you'll get done!

I don't know if it is or not, but at the time, I can't see them arresting you for it. Heres a link for a nice video of them having fun with it. I can't imagine, but it should help ya because they actually have their own website. Good luck and stay low and away from cops.
