i'm glad we dont have inspections in Michigan. I think they are kinda pointless anyway if all the states dont have them and require the same things what good does it do.

 

In Mo.my 1940 chevy has no inspections ..
My 1969 Corvette no inspections..

 

We don't have inspections in Florida, & `if we did I think over half of the vehicles + on the road would fail a safety check...

When you are at the Mall or places like Walmart , just look at the vehicles there I see many with bald tires, low air pressure, leaking/smoking etc. ( I also know that times are hard/difficult to many), but a vehicles can kill `if it's not safe 4-Sure..

What % of vehicle do you think are unsafe out there on the roads with you ? ?

I also find it sad that there are government inspector's that can be bribed to pass a test...It's the world we live in, but it should not `be.

I believe `if the majority doesn't like the rules/laws that they should work peacefully to resolve the rules that are unfair & unjust...

How many vehicles out there have bad tires, brakes, suspensions, wore steering parts, bad wheel bearing, axles, etc...

Do you want to see these vehicles out there driving towards or at the ones your love & care about > or at YOU

People seem to only care when someone in their life is injured or killed, but then it's to late

That's `all, my space brain is empty & I must go refill & give everyone a break... Your turn

 

PA definitely is a tough state. I usually go for my inspection about 2 months before the sticker is expired, so that it gives me time to save up and fix what was needed in case I fail

 

Well MA is bad on regulations but police and inspectors dont care on everything now I believe if your tailsm were so black you couldn't see light a cop would stop you but my car just gets the thumbs up but if I had failed its just plastidip yanno it comes right off. Best part of ma inspection is you don't have to pass emissions if you car is 15 years or older the downside is the exhuast has to be oem and leak free from a quick visual check. They can fail you for smoke, excess noise, aftermarket mufflers, aftermarket lights. I did not have to bribe anybody to get Lola to pass

 

See what you started by your thread & passing your inspection LOL > Thanks for creating some great activity on the MCF

 

I do like an idea of a "safety" inspection, within reason. A lot of people don't check certain things on their cars, oh, like brakes.... Or they will ride on worn brakes far longer then they should. A reasonable inspect may help keep some people safer.
But again, all things within reason.

In my location, a car no longer needs an emissions check when it is 25 years or older or has a collector plate.

A friend of mine with a heavily modded Vette had an issue a year or two ago. His plates lapsed (due to an engine rebuild), took it to have his emission check done. They failed because of his high flow cat, but could not articulate other then "tampering". He did not have a code delete and the rebuild was not to add a mod (so how the car is modded, it has passed via computer and conventional tail pipe testing consistently). Matter of fact, he was failed for "tampering" after they finished actually testing it (it's like the person wanted to fail him on purpose). Last I knew he was not going to go through the EPA hoops (as until he goes through some EPA craziness, the car is black listed from being tested and will not be retested). He told the guy at the inspection office "you're forcing me to do something I avoided for years. I get this car collector plates and you NEVER see it again". Last I knew, that's what he did.

 

Congrats on the pass!!
