Many US states and localities scan license plates to make sure your

the stickers were yellow and I knew a guy that used Top Value Trading

The inspection stations all had a gimmick too. One would pass any car

cheap and easy and you did not question it as the worn ball joints they
ignored would have been very expensive.
