    Wtf, why would budget cars need to be inspected every 6 months/ how does this even work for places that have no mechanics within 50 miles?

      Because budget or not they use the same roads. And it’s usually not only the person driving being in danger when something breaks.

        I understand it when it is specifically for large cities (>500,000 people or so) but when done at a state level it makes no sense. I understand that it is functionality not enforced in smaller communities, but I personally think any law that has poor enforcement for good reason (such as more than half of the vehicles not complying) should be removed or redefined (perhaps only require it on commercial vehicles or make it a secondary crime).
