    I'm not sure that this law will make any real difference. The article states...
    "Rajkovacz noted that the California Air Resources Board already does regular tests for smoke from trucks at weigh stations and trucking companies. And under landmark rules finalized several years ago, the board required that by 2023, only trucks that are model 2010 or newer can be driven on California roads."

    But this is supposed to be a bigger area to have it done at, something like the inspection stations in TX , not at the scale. It is going to slow down trucking that much more.

    Half of the illegal smog trucks running in cali are registered there. There are many pre-egr trucks driving all over that state. These trucks are the "low hanging fruit", that they should go after first. But that would imply common sense.

    Could the Banning scale on I-10 possibly get any slower? Last time thru there, I put myself on off duty line on eld as I crawled thru there line and was on that duty status for 23 minutes! Wasn't pulled in for inspection, just took that long to get in and out of that scale!
