Can you deny entry if an officer tells you to pull in? These damn things are now in the neighborhood (concord area)

Yes. They're optional but they don't really acknowledge that.

They are voluntary, BUT a lot of times, they have a black and white down the street, and any suspicious cars that refuse to volunteer, are flagged by radio to get pulled over by the unit waiting.

Waste of taxpayer's money in my opinion. If it ever happened to me they better have probable cause.

Wow, really? That's unfortunate. Have you ever seen it happen? In general, what's the probable cause?

I Just had to SMOG my car last week, I asked the tech about these mobile stations. He told me they were to check to see how well the actual SMOG stations are doing. But all the license plates are logged in, participants and refusals. So don't be surprised if you get a notice in the mail from DMV or BAR if it fails or you refuse.

Whoever wants to be next to do a mass shooting should go light up one of these mobile smog stations. Fuck California smog regulations.

100% false. Law Enforcement is on scene as primary function of traffic safety. SO many rumors spread around about this. Would 10 members please post your traffic citation from a mobile smog check point??????????
These check points are data collection of SMOG emissions for the state. It doesn't flag your vehicle.
Ever see construction at night and a cop car? same thing. The cost associated with them is factored into a construction bid for safety. Some of the funding associated with them being at these site comes from DOT.

Liberals try and use kids as a pawn to take more of our money and freedoms. 30k for a retrofit filter on 1 big rig. Only in Progressive Blue states are where this is being done.

Page 9, 4.3: Inspection Protocol. Give it a read.

On another note, where and when have you seen them in Concord?
Good find! guys read 4.3: Inspection Protocol! The problem is the COPS!! this inspection is to be used for surveys and QC analysis for BAR and not to crack down on illegally modified vehicles. In the IP section it states that the greeter tells you that no fines/tickets will be given to the driver.

A CHP officer is there for a few reasons :
1.The smog guys don't have the authority to stop you alone.
2. To make sure that it's done safely.
3. Cash. That's an overtime gig out of the smog guys budget.

Yep.

If you decline they enter your lic plate into a laptop for analysis later. I'd say no thanks and skirt outta there so they can't read my plate.
