In Cali, if you are involved in a fender bender, you may have to do this inspection next time your registration is due. This happened to me with my old Supra, and it wasn't my fault.
How do they enforce this?? When ever i sell a car or truck I just sign over the pinkslip and the deal is done. I live in cali and have bought and sold several trucks (that have been in accidents at one point or another) and I find it odd that I haven't run into this yet.
