Is it safe to drive with a rattling exhaust?

Keeping this in consideration, can you drive with a rattling exhaust?

Secondly, how much does it cost to fix a rattling exhaust? If you can hear a kind of rattling sound as you drive along, this usually means that a bracket holding part of the exhaust system in place has become loose and is no longer holding things in place properly. When caught early, this issue is pretty straight-forward and inexpensive to amend – around $40.
