Why this petition matters

Started by Christopher Myers

We would like to pass AB210 to change smog exemption from 1976 to 1983. This would benfit the public, and have minimal effect on the environment. Please sign our petition, and contract our representatives to let them know you support this bill. 

AB 210 recognizes the minimal impact of pre-1983 vehicles on emissions and air quality.  
 
AB 210 acknowledges that pre-1983 vehicles still constitute an insignificant portion of the overall vehicle population and are a poor source from which to look for emissions reduction.
 
AB 210 endorses the fact that pre-1983 vehicles are overwhelmingly well-maintained and infrequently driven (a fraction of the miles each year as a new vehicle).

This would help owners or classic cars to keep them on the road as historical and show pieces. Most of these cars are well maintained, but can have issues with finding a smog station willing to test, or locatinng hard to find emissions equipment to pass visual test even actual emissions are within acceptable levels.

Eliminating these unnecessary test due to lack of numbers in this area would give car owners piece of mind to know their automobile would not be subject to scrapage.
