I can’t think of a reason for the extra hassle and expense.

    Also, our vehicles don’t require inspections anymore, which is both a bonus for your wallet, and also very frightening when you realize how many vehicles out there are on the verge of brake failure or something equally dangerous.

    I like how you supported small government a d then realized why it was small and what’s at stake, in the same sentence.

      LOL, I don’t think Mississippi ever cared much in the first place. Back in the day, Mississippi actually did require inspections, for all of $5.

      They didn’t bother checking the brakes or much of anything really, except make sure all the lights and the horn work. Sometimes they might even make sure your seatbelts are intact and latch correctly.

      I remember sometime in the late 90s helping my dad push his Buick into the inspection bay. They didn’t even care that the car literally didn’t run, he still passed inspection, because all his lights and horn worked! 😂🤣
