Ah, so they genuinely check to see if those functions work and you have to pay someone to verify that annually?

The last two times, the guy commented 'I saw you drive up- headlights work, breaks work. You're good.' Does the service center get a cut? I always thought if they did, it was pretty small.

ETA: found this article from 2012- it's a lot more than I thought.

For the most part, the cost is divided three ways: $4.75 to the station performing the inspection; $4 goes to Louisiana State Police; and $1.25 goes to the Office of Motor Vehicles.
