i dont understand this concept at all.


-its unsafe for our roads/drivers/children
-its actually less money if you think about it.
-its stupid IMO


yearly state inspections cost 16.00$ now. If they do this 2 year thing for new cars, that cost 20.00$, thats 20$ for 2 years, versus 32$ for 2 years?


so much shit happens in 1 year to your cars tires, brakes, suspension, headlights, bulbs, motor mounts, wiper blades, everything.

i think its rediculous.

but just my opinion?

They're lowering the price to $5 an inspection?
I understand needing to increase State revenue, I mean drive down 64 and you'll see why.

same here.. our flat rate time for replacing an air filter on every car is .2

and inspecting a vehicle which takes at least 20-30 minutes for some older cars with alot of miles, we only get payed .3?

its bullshit, im actually talking to my boss about it tomorrow..


it will get changed, b/c every state inspector in my shop, has complained about how in the VSP inspection manual, it says each vehicle inspection should take somewhere between 40-50 minutes to properly inspect.



its bullshit.
