Connecticut inspects very little... and I'm not complaining. I've never heard of anyone getting their TT, 5er, HTT, or TH inspected in any way. The majority of motor vehicle registration is done by mail and/or over the internet, all the state wants is your money.
Even motor vehicles... virtually no inspections unless there is an unusual circumstance. Emissions tests are about all that is done. Most shops that do emissions are just trying to get cars through as quick as possible. If there is an issue, they usually will reschedule you to come back another day.
If you get stuck in one of the DMV roadside inspection "safety" stings, who knows. Seems to entirely depend on the mood of the officer. They are mostly going for easy seat belt laws and obvious issues, though, and will usually wave RVs past.
It almost seems like Connecticut makes it so easy to forget to have your vehicle's emissions done and to keep registration current intentionally - so if you get caught you have to pay higher fines.
