There have been several in Concord here in the East Bay.

I have heard two stories about these road-side smog tests:

1.) They can send you to the ref and penalize you.

2.) They are for survey purposes only and can't legally penalize you in any way.

I am curious what the truth is.

Luke

The biggest thing I heard from an internet lawyer (who knows if real) was that they are voluntary and you can decline to take part.
I've also heard this as well Kevin. If I ever get pulled over in any car I will ask all these questions and attempt to refuse the test.

depends where you live in AZ. I know that the county Pheonix is in requires something ridiculous like cars 65 and up to be smogged. of course its probably not as strict. good luck!

I have been wanting to get caught in one so bad in my girls car or my dd ranger. I will refuse the fuck out of it and wait to see the consequences.

I wonder... If you pass can you pay 8 bucks and get a certificate so you don't have to do it again until the year after?

Ok, I bought my car back in Feb with an of road H. What exactly is this check point? And if I DO have to take it, and i fail, what happens? I see people saying you can refuse but I'm sure they have cops handy and ready to stop you afterward, right?

Thanks in advance.

Just so everyone knows you have a 100% right to refuse !!!!

I have been through these numorous times, they use to setup on a large 2 lane road down the road from my house.

Refused their "survey" everytime !

They use a CHP to direct a vehicle onto the dyno after a vehicle finishes and drives off. If you are the next vehicle CHP will direct you over to take the test.
Just tell them you are refusing the test, I told him flat out it was a waste of my time, taxpayer money, and CHP could be doing something (sure he could find SOMETHING in Stockton)and that I was refusing the test.
They are quite surprised when someone refuses because the use intimidation (use CHP)and never once yell you its voluntary.
As I have said, I have been through multiple stations .... I want EVERYONE to know you have the right to refuse !!!!
Nothing like refusing and driving by a few minutes later and reving the hell out of a Mustang (had glasspacks on it when I purchased 87 GT and resold the car right after)and the looks I got....... PRICELESS
