| Subject | Smoke Testing Trucks Twice |
| Comment | Truck fleets like ours have to smoke test their trucks with an opacity test machine once a year. I just received a registration renewal in the mail for one of our diesel pickups and it requires diesel trucks less than 14,000 GVW to be smog tested at a local smog station. The smog stations don't have the opacity test equipment like we have. They are told to look to see if it smokes. If it does, fail it. Why do we have to smoke test our trucks then have them smog tested when the registration is due? That’s doing the same job twice. Can you please consider removing one of the requirements. Having us do a test then the State do a test is ridiculous. Ron Nuss Northwest Excavating, Inc. |
