Where are you from?

If your state doesn't check emission then you will pass.

Never heard of Anaheim, California???

Poor sap, He's up against the California Air Resources Board; the Granddaddy of Emissions rules. Hopefully all the inspection stations aren't run by the state (where you can throw some cash at the inspector) but if they are state run - you're doomed, doomed I say!!!

The C.A.R.B. has been around for quite some time; so you can't blame the "Ahhrnold" for that one.

The quick of it?
1) All safety related items, presence of seat belts - etc
2) Inspection Items, Brakes, shocks, suspension, lights, horns - etc, etc
3) Emissions pieces in place: O2 sensors ect
4) Emissions levels themselves

There's a whole book (manual) which each state issues to their inspection stations
