State inspection in Florida

[Tom]

Interesting question. Here in Michigan we had random safety inspections a very long time ago (60’s – 70’s). Shops did not do them – instead the State Police set up road blocks and inspected them right there.

Part of the state had emissions testing (80’s – 90’s). 

Today we have nothing. I am skeptical of government doing things like this. We do have shop and tech licensing (I’ve spent well over $20K in fees so far – I think ASA would have made better use of that money).

I’d be interested to hear pro and con from shop owners in states that have safety inspections.
