Inspections

how are you getting close enough to tell?

Hi All, Have you ever walked through a campground and looked at all the Trailers and 5th wheels that are not state inspected. I've been in several in the south and found more that are not inspected then inspected. Their probably lucky they have them registered. Just wondering.

We are not required to have inspections. Washington says we are responsible for the care of our vehicles, and the state patrol can stop us and inspect if they see a safety violation. tire tread being the most common violation.

A light out usually gets a stop and instructions to get it fixed.

No inspections required here either.
Thank goodness too the CA state 2 year emission tests are enough of a headache.

.

My rv/tt is at seasonal site and I purposely removed its license plate 5 years ago. Works for me...

We are not required to be inspected and we do not have sticker for our plates.

No inspections in IL either - for cars, trucks, or RVs. Close to Chicago and St Louis there are required emissions inspections for cars.

The inspection stickers or certificates are easy to see without getting close to the unit.

Most states do not require inspections.

I guess. In Canada they are on the side of the trailer. tough to see from the road

Not sure what the point of this post is. Many states do not require state inspections. Even if a owner's state does require an inspection, an exemption comes into play if it expires while traveling out of state, and the owner has x many days to get it inspected upon returning.
