We need to bring back "Rolling Smog" legalities. This hardline 1975 cut-off year is just mean! Barely any cars are left from the 80's, let alone ones on the road... but the ones that are, still need smog? It's a 40-year old car! A distant memory from a bygone era! C'MON!!

[@pdiz]

So true. It should just be that older than 10 years are exempt, because the average soccer mom trades her vehicle in every 3 or so years, and the majority of people. Most old-car gear heads maintain their cars WAY better than anything on the road because they're passionate about them, and isn't driving an old car a form of recycling? I remember back when my '69 Satellite got a NOX box put on it, and when the law changed, that sh*t went bye bye.

[@Suddenlyits1960]

Yep,agree completely. It’s utter bs. Californians need to stand up and get angry and vocal enough to change this. Vote idiots out who impose draconian rules. Surely there have to be enough sane people left to swing this. In any other sane state anything 30 years old is smog exempt. Places like tennesse don’t have any smog bs at all.

And the crazy irony is Phoenix/Tucson metro areas here in Arizona are now stricter concerning smog checks, as in all 1967+ vehicles have to go through them, yet anything older than 1975 in Calif's now exempt from any sort of mandated test(!). Rural Az, where I live, has no sort of emissions testing at all.

[@LA_Commander]

That is correct. Smog tests are only required in the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas. The other surrounding areas do not. :-)

If only the smog checks weren’t so strict. Seriously, why does California care about the visuals or what part I repaired my vehicle with? They should only care about the emissions.

[@LA_Commander]

Easy. If the local post office will not deliver mail to you directly because you live in the boonies, they are required by law to give you a post office box free of charge. You only need to complete a form at the post office and show them proof of your address (like a utility bill or something like that). When you complete the DMV form, you write down your residence address AND your PO Box mailing address. This will cover you. I've been doing this for decades.

when did this take place? my county is smog exempt, but i still had to smog it 3 months ago...

[@Garth2011]

They made changes to county exempt...now some certain zip codes within an exempt county are required to smog check. I guess the pollution ratios vary from downtown L.A. compared to Needles, CA. however, once the wind blows...all counties are sniffing the blended pollution all the same and in just a few hours, it's all moved to Arizona and Nevada. Many of us fail to see the need for smog checks every two years especially when the vehicles are with the same owner, same locations for decades. If they pass the first few times, they should be exempt and only require a check after a 10 year period if the same person still owns them. For those who change cars like they would a pair of jeans, it won't matter much since they are subject to reg and transfer fees galore anyway. 2% license plate fees ("personal property tax") are just a disguise for an unjustified tax. If the state were taxing personal property, they'd tax on furniture, tools and other items. Most other states don't but in CA, the blue dems must have their satisfaction and relief they can use larceny against the public to pay for their Government issued credit cards, state provided vehicles and fuel and on and on. In Florida, its $30 a year for any vehicle tag and no smog checks.

I want to keep my car. I actually will be outside of California, but traveling all over the place. The State of California will not let me have a car registered in CA if I don't pass smog with it. I will have to register outside of California, even though I live in CA. Weird, but that is the way it has to be. I will register at my sister's ranch in Oregon. Going to cost me like $350 to do that. Would cost me $1,500 in repair fees to get a 2 year pass in CA. Will need like $3K in smog work to pass in CA. I guess $350 in Oregon is the path of least resistance. Sucks.

CA will tell you to register it in TX at some point unless the car returns to CA often enough

[@________________6749]

I would rather register my car out of state and either get the license plates from Nevada or Baja California, Mexico Then I could act like a tourist while having more freedom at early retirement. For months, If not years......... I've seen the same people, driving around with the same cars, with the same out of state plates, cruisin' around like it's nothing and the local cops or CHP don't even do a thing about it in my area. Even some people from Washington state have registered their cars out of state in Oregon, Idaho, or Nevada because the cost of registration is expensive in Washington state. It's not just the smog restrictions that has drivers gone hothead...... It's the registration costs that puts America on Cheapskate Mode. I don't blame anybody for having to register their cars out of state since it's Caca-fornia's fault and Washington state's fault for increasing costs in the first place.

@@MrToky916 That's right. I've been studying California law since high school, including some expensive mistakes along the way. In 11th grade I bought a dead-mint, 1-owner 1957 Ford 500 Victoria with 24M. It cost me $25 to put a smog device on it and the engine was toast in less than 6 months. I swore I would never put another smog device on a car, a vow I've kept to this day. In the early days of legislation I lobbied for reformed laws for collector cars, created the YOM plate program in 1983 and authored statutory exemptions for specific situations and vehicles within the CVC. Smog in California gets worse every year as the number of cars increases. Smog devices - and their inherent destruction of engines by rerouting exhaust back down into the combustion chambers - has cost California car owners billions of dollars in wasted money, lost time, destroyed vehicles and unjust enrichment for the car repair industry. Smog (a compounding of smoke and fog) existed in California long before the arrival of the automobile and will still be here after we're gone. Anyone with an issue needs to research and put in the time, same as I did. I've paved the road; all anyone needs to do is travel it to reap the desired benefits.

Seems like it would be much easier to just buy a house and move to one of the areas where there is no smog. If you can't live there for work or other reasons just rent the cheapest dump of an apartment and never live there? You could even probably find someone who lives there and pay them $100/month for a "parking space" or "roommate" so you have two addresses. (I haven't lived in California for 15+ years because of the smog bullcrap even though I grew up there).

You're not quite accurate on the disallowance of PO Boxes.
