New bill in California to end smog exemption

they try this every year, it hasn't come to pass yet, and we can't let it happen! write your representatives (for what good it does) and make your displeasure known...

arizona is 68 no change in years

Yeah Oregon was a 30 year rolling deal that turned sour aswell. I think about 6-8 years ago they went to '76 and newer tested across the board. Meanwhile Washington State was 68-up tested in only 3-4 counties, until about 5 years ago they made it a rolling 25 or older is exempt.
When i lived in New Mexico(Bernalillo County -Albuquerque), they had it locked in at '74-up must test. The rest of the state was exempt.

Though if you really stand back and look at it and the requirements certian years must meet (Emissions testing is broken up into groups corresponding in age) the minium requirements are really easy to reach. I was going to school for being a Auto Tech abuout the time they came in hard and heavey for the testing, and really, it wasn't hard to pass a car as long as it ran good, properly maintained and in tune. And besides....we had (and still have) our tricks up our sleeves.

we have visual

Oh yeah forgot about visuals. Dont; have them in WA (at least not down here) Not sure about Oregon, I think maybe open hood on vehicles 10 years and newer. In New Mexico, full rubber glove inspection.... talk about a real bummer.
