Where do you go to get the car inspected? Must be something in TV.

As far as I know there no emissions testing stations in Florida. See this web page:
Florida car inspection | DMV.org (http://www.dmv.org/fl-florida/smog-check.php)

The auto manufacturers are required to make the cars meet a minimum standard. After that it is up to the states, as it should be. Emissions testing regulations in the states are a breeding ground for corruption and abuse.

:agree:

In fact, when we did have emissions testing, and other inspection requirements, people whose income was below the poverty level were not required to repair the deficiencies on their cars. And their cars were generally older and more likely to fail inspections. So, what was the point of inspections?

In Southern Maryland where we ar from, only up in Charles County near DC needed emission testing. Seems like in Metro areas.
