To the RINOS here:
Why did Florida stop vehicle inspections?
Has Florida Ever Had Mandatory Emissions Inspections? Florida hasn’t had emissions tests or state inspections since 1981 when Governor Bob Graham did away with them, citing high costs of tests and long wait times.
Florida had state-run inspection stations that everyone had to go to. During summers, I used to take people's cars for inspection to make some money sitting in those lines.
Texas licensed out vehicle inspections to local auto maintenance shops. California does, too.
