North Carolina is among a dwindling number of states that require safety inspections for every car, every year. Including cars that are nearly new, only a year or two old.
I’m doing some reporting on this. I’d like to know what drivers think about taking their cars in for safety inspection each year (I’m not concerned here about emissions inspections):
Does this inspection requirement help you keep your tires, brakes, lights, wipers etc working properly?
Does it make your car safer?
Or is inspection a waste of your time and money?
Please share your experience and your opinion on mandatory car safety inspections.
Email me or call me at 919-829-4527. Don't forget to include your name and contact info.
