It is supposedly illegal here as well but I've yet to hear of any fines. My diesel ford is mildly chipped and will emit a smaller amount of smoke than most and only if I punch it hard. I chipped it for the additional HP and fuel savings as I gained about 3 mpg in normal driving. I'm not the guy who smokes out the Prius at stoplights...


Rolling coal, or the act of purposefully releasing large amounts of black smoke from a modified diesel engine, is not legal in the province of Alberta. The Government of Alberta has strict regulations surrounding the emission of pollutants from vehicles, and it is illegal to modify a vehicle in such a way that would cause it to emit more pollutants than it was designed to emit. Rolling coal has been known to create significant air pollution, and therefore it is not allowed.
