    That's the point, The stickers are issued in ON, on An Illinois authority and nobody looks at the trucks.
    The powers to be won't investigate because they are afraid to stir the pot.

    Someone in ON is using the IL shops credentials basically.

    I've had it done to me a few times. Even had my old invoices replicated, and used by other repair facilities on road calls. I guess to skirt the tax liability, but also used when they did half ash work.

    Not surprised since it seems like any Tom, Dick or Harry can perform an annual in the US.

    Meanwhile we have to have a mechanic with inspection license inspect a truck out here. We have to actually have the wheels pulled off as well.

    Not saying some owner ops aren't completely competent and capable of doing it but it sure leaves an opportunity for the sleazy operators to just pencil whip a safety and slap a sticker on their equipment.

    Because it’s not about safety but about revenue, I don’t mean revenue for the shop either
