re: Louisiana lawmaker again trying to do away with vehicle inspection stickers (brake tags)

Good. Yet another law/regulation/fee that only honest taxpaying American citizens are expected to honor. Do you think any of Joe Biden's new 14 million guests are getting inspection stickers on their cars?

In br 5 parish you will still need emissions check

I buy new cars before the inspection sticker expires, so this doesn’t matter to me.

Once this executive order puts more cops on the streets they can start writing tickets for no blinkers or brakes to make up the difference.

If my vehicle needs to be “roadworthy” Louisiana should make sure their roads are “vehicle worthy”.

Unpopular opinion ,but the standards of a vehicle inspection need to higher in LA not lower or done away with. Too many people on the road in complete shitboxes that they do not maintain alot of them without insurance in most cases. If you have a vehicle and do not keep it in safe driving condition than you should not be on the road. Now downvote away.

Revenue from state inspection stickers typically goes to Louisiana State Police. But with a new tax on vaping products, LSP is now in favor of the removal of inspection stickers.

The people that don't care already don't care. They are going to drive anyway. If you upped the standards it would be declared "war against the poor" People who are going to keep their cars up either way are the ones that are being inconvenienced.

This is a canard. I drive hundreds of miles per week and southeast LA has far more good highways than bad.

LSP doesn't bother me but all the podunk barney fife speed traps and inspection sticker checkpoints where the work traffic is passing pisses me off. Just say all the working people owe an extra $10 this month so we can make the pension payroll and be done with it.

If it was about safety, they'd pull over the obviously fricked up buckets with fake stickers and no insurance and do something about them. It isn't. It's about generating revenue via the people who have the means to pay the tickets.
