i don't know about them knowing if you have a cel on or not but that alone is not a offense, it does prevent you from updating your registration once every 2 years and if you can show you spent at least $500 attempting to repair it then you get a 1 time pass. so in theory you could drive around with a cel for 4 years with no recourse
they have setup said sensors in so-cal from what I have read and if you happened to get flagged they would have you get a smog test, but from I have read those so far have only been in a testing phase.
occasionally around here they will setup a mobile roadside test, however it is completely voluntary and they only do it to show statewide compliance
the state is overbudget big time they do not have the resources to put systems like that in place at least not at this time.
If you pass by a cop and your blowing billows of smoke then ya you might get pulled over and made to go get a smog test.
For all vehicles, not just EVs.

What does "GMT" written before NNBS900 Mean ? Thanks
Wiki says this...

GMT (General Motors Truck) is a nomenclature used by General Motors to designate multiple vehicle platforms. In use since the early 1980s, the GMT nomenclature is used for light trucks, full-size SUVs, and vans, along with several medium-duty trucks.

I can agree with getting a fixit ticket for a badly smoking car. the rest is all bs.

I remember when I was a kid back in Florida. my mom had a old chevy, but believe it was a 68 and it smoked really bad, used a lot of oil. I was maybe 10, long before I could fix cars. she got a fix it ticket from a cop. I believe it ended up being junked and bought something else. looking back I have seen a few vehicles over the years the cops should have done too.


tx just did the ev charge last year I think it was. flat charge once a year. not based on mileage driven.

someone did the math and of course it's way more than what the average person pays in fuel tax. so it's more of an electric car penalty than anything legitimate.

Last night, but I replaced the ebay seat foam with a DuraFoam cushion. I thought about reusing the OEM seat cover, but it was too cracked.

The ebay kit had crappy foam, but the cover is sufficient. Hopefully the foam settles in a bit, as it makes me like 2" taller in the seat.
