The West Coast making strides
Well as we a know California has very strict emissions laws. There is a bill the the state of Washington is trying to pass that would make their laws the same as California (House Bill 1397 & Senate Bill 5397). If this bill gets passed it will be effective in 2009, and by 2016 all cars would have to be equipped with the necessary parts.
Okay here the catch...All the numbers pertaining to the consumers look great, but the predictions by the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers say the the numbers were not done by auto-engineers and could cost Washingtionians thousands extra, every time they go to purchase a new car. The question I ask is, who's numbers are we to believe? We all want to save money and the environment in the process, but people tend who wants to pay extra for a new car? Is the Alliance of Automobile manufactures using scare tactics to avoid having to spend extra money on production cost, let me know who's numbers are legit.http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/aplocal_story.asp?catagory=6420&slug=WA%20XGR%20Car%20Emissions

I used to think that environmentalists were working against Corpollutors and for "The People", that is until they came up with the Smog Check Rip-Off.
This the DMV of the various states and the auto repair industry teaming up to EXTORT money from it's citizens. You cannot reregister your vehicle without paying for the Smog Test.
They use selected research studies to create the "need" for new regulations and vehicle "fees" (Taxes),income for the government and favored lobbyest campaign contributors.
