Here in NY I've had several 1000 lb trailers inspected which only involved checking lights and pulling the hitch up and down by hand (to check if it is sturdy)
It will be interesting to watch what they do for the inspection of my 20 ft TT next month!
In New York, the inspection process should be different between a TT and a lightweight utility trailer. I get my 5er and 8000# flatbed trailer inspected at a big rig trailer repair place here in Syracuse. I have to leave the combo and they test brakes, pull at least one wheel and make sure the breakaway system works in addition to all the lights & stuff. If your inspection station is not doing that, it's time to go to a new place.
