I didn't even know about this until today and noticed there was nothing posted on this forum so I am posting this as PSA. Apparently all trucks including out of state will have to register in a CARB database ($30) annually and also submit a smog test twice a year to their database (one time for this year)

Carb can suck my lower horn. I refuse to haul so much as a pebble for that hell hole.
That said thanks for the info for those who are still willing to go into that cesspool of stupid.Crude Truckin', MACK E-6, Snailexpress and 10 others Thank this. -
It'll be interesting to me, to see what my company does. We haul dairy occasionally out of there. I imagine it wouldn't be worth the cost when there's alot of trucks.

Fleets will be able to do their own testing. It is just going to be a obd device. Im hoping it will be something loves offers for cheap. You plug in the computer and upload the data to their database twice a year. Its the single truck o/o that will face the most burden like always. You just need an employee to get certified for free and then he can do all the testing for a fleet

Guess I won’t be going into California anymore.

Once they stop hauling freight into California, they'll soon change their tune. How about all those smog producing cars are they going to get all the owners to go electric too? Just wondering why the legal people haven't challenged it yet?Another Canadian driver, drvrtech77 and tiddlytanker Thank this.

I am no lawyer so I may be completely wrong here. There is currently litigation happening involving the zero emission mandates. It is about the waivers the EPA issued to California to make their own emission laws. If the EPA loses that would throw CARB out the window.
It is Western States Trucking Association, et al v. U.S. EPAAnother Canadian driver, shatteredsquare, Iamoverit and 3 others Thank this. -
Right here,,,
, why you guys put up with this crap, I'll never know. Things were so much easier in the 70s.

Where's Jimmy when you need him,,,oh, right, that. Besides, what do you expect from a state that now wants to ban gas flames in restaurants, so it's not just us they're picking on. Just think, clean trucks, no gas fumes in restaurants, it's utopia, man,,

This is their version of utopia for anyone not them.
And if you dont agree thats fine! They will happily send legally sanctioned knee breakers to your place to talk "reasonable" sense into you and take everything you own as a small fine for their trouble.JoeyJunk, MACK E-6, Another Canadian driver and 3 others Thank this. -
So you think if I was a mechanic, I would go get trained for free, then add to my responsibilities list without more pay?
Do they cover the cost of training, travel lodging, missed time from regular duties and cover the cost of that raise I now demand of my employer. Also let's not forget we now need a backup for in case I am out sick or leave and also if I leave now you need to have someone else trained.
As stated before just refuse to go past enemy lines. If all these companies would just say ## for a little bit how long would they last before they started backtracking. They won't stop pushing unless they are pushed back!JoeyJunk and Another Canadian driver Thank this.
