We have something like this in Colorado and I incorrectly assumed it was the same everywhere. I hope it goes through for California.

It requires special insurance which limits what you can do with the vehicle. In most cases you can’t even tow anything with it for example.

This is a case of a bill with a good goal (reduce smog) but with an oddly specific focus that turns it into a tax on the poor.

There are better ways to accomplish smog reduction for old vehicles but with using carrots instead of sticks.
