I've had a few customers come in thru the decades, wit a "VI" ticket for a full inspection, crying the blues cuz they had a lite out, or waaay much neg camber rear, - knew it, then the officer stepped on the brake, and pulled the emergency, it's all part of the check they do if you give them "attitude" .
Around here, it does not snow. Cars don't rust out like yours do. There are no safety inspections. We do have emission testing for cars built from 1976 to
2017. Cars newer than 5 years old are exempt from testing.
I have not lived in or dealt with oppressive police inspections.
