California Air Resources Board

Summary

Would have eliminated certain criteria for what defines a “collector car,” in the Health and Safety Code relating to the smog check program.  This bill would have exempted these cars from a visual or functional check of emission control devices, including the catalytic converter.  Additionally, the bill would have removed the requirement that these vehicles pass a visual inspection for liquid fuel leaks which poses a public safety risk.  Was not heard in the Assembly Transportation Committee.
