The controversial law will apply to all but 17 counties in the Lone Star state car auto cars
that aims to fix issues with the current system. Not all Texans will end up exempt from the safety inspection system though.
Vehicles registered in Texas today must pass a safety inspection that checks on features like tire condition, seat belts, brakes, and more. Twelve other states across the country also require safety inspections for motor vehicles but in a little under two years,will end the program. The $7.50 fee isn’t going anywhere though. It’ll now be called the “Inspection Program Replacement Fee.”
Initially, the law was put in place to promote safety. Data showed that cars with defects to the above-mentioned components presented a larger safety risk on the road. Compared to other states, Texas roads see more vehicle-related fatalities on average. So removing the safety inspection isn’t something that everyone supports.
