Lived in MD for 12 years. If I recall, every other year, we had to take our car to a state inspection site. Checked the brakes, exhaust and a visual inspection on tires, wipers, windshield, etc. They weren't selling anything.
I purchased my daughter-in-law's used car. Had to take it to be inspected, and found out it had failed inspection earlier the previous year. She had failed to respond to several letters from the state and there now was an arrest warrant out for her. She was floored when I told her to report to the police station. My son just grinned when I told him what his bride had done, or not done. BTW, she also paid the $475 fine that was outstanding. I had no intention of covering that cost. Parents can only be expected to do so much for their kids.
