Depends on where you get your car inspected.

My “inspection” on my old VW is essentially a walk around.

Soooo glad our state dumped the inspection requirement a few years ago.

My low mile, babied car supposedly failed brake inspection on one of those drive-on brake testers. I knew damn well my brakes were fine. Had to take it back to the dealership where i bought it to get a safety certificate so i could register the car. The dealer Tech said the brakes were in like new condition. Love it when you get your lug nuts overtightened by some 18 year old at the quick lube joint. I had only driven the car 150 miles one year but, you guessed it, i had to get another safety inspection to register it for the next year.

Strangely enough the world has not come to an end with elimination of safety inspections. And to those who support safety inspections - you can still get them, every week if it makes you feel better.
