When imwas a saftey inspector Va. decided to start the emmisions testing and I had to get licensed for that . Back then t was no big deal unless a woman came in with shirt buttuned down or short skirts pulled up ,, believe me it happened .. well being a young stud lol .. That was a reason for rejection ! Why , Somthey would come back again lol .. there was always something on a vehicle that needed to be taken care of ,, simple stuff like a bulb , wiper blades etc. on the safety inspection .. Emmisions inspection were a bit more involved .. But the truth is inspections were very rarely monitored by the State ( state police were in charge ) ..
I was repremanded 1 time by a sneaky undercover state copper for doing the best inspection he has seen .. he was also wrong about what he claimed I didnt inspect .. I ended up getting a verbal reprimand from the head honcho trooper that came to the shop . Verbal reprimands were the second stage of punishment , the first was suppose to be a written letter of reprimand .. total BS . The 3 stage of reprimand was possibly fines , drivers licsense suspended and even jail .. Well that was the tip of the iceberg and I decided Im not doing inspections anymore . I was a mechanic and hated being interupted to do damn inspections. My boss approved and had others do the inspections .. no freaking way was I going to risk those reprimands ... i was by the book as best as it could have been .. well excpet checking out boobies and legs lol but hey that wasnt in the book rules lol
