As I understand it, that’s how the Japanese keep older cars off the road (and thus require people to keep buying new ones). As cars get older, they are required to pass ‘safety inspections’. The older the car, the more rigorous and expensive the tests become until the inspections and repairs required to pass them exceed the value of the cars themselves.

Time to go full Cuban on automobiles.
