Which state is that? the only one that tries (CA)?
Oklahoma - "inspector" doesnt even come out outside to look at the car he is certifying title change from _salvage to rebuild_, multiple times for a dude doing copart salvage flips selling dangerous wrecks to people (YT "Auto Auction Rebuilds", dude is shady af).
Florida - Taylor Ray https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5wt8FpNy10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5wt8FpNy10 "LS Miata ABANDONED NEIGHBORHOOD TESTING!" LS powered full racecar straight piped miata, has title, inspection was going in and getting a stamp.
Oklahoma - no inspection at all, straight piped work trucks with rusted out frames are the norm.
Kansas - Hoovies Garage https://youtu.be/ZlwjXhdNd3Y?t=433 https://youtu.be/ZlwjXhdNd3Y?t=433 "Why buying an old Shelby GT350 race car WAS A TERRIBLE IDEA" Full leaking fuel racecar with no speedo lights windows, inspector doesnt bother to even see it in person.
Utah - M539 Restorations https://youtu.be/_a9rCI2zfPM?t=524 https://youtu.be/_a9rCI2zfPM?t=524 "Buying & Fixing Broken BMW E46 M3 5200 Miles Away From Home - Project Salt Lake: Part 1" tire shop "inspection station", only interested in plugging in OBD to do emissions, doesnt bother to come out look at the car, car so broken (wobbly wheel, etc) it cant pass emissions, gets temp tag anyway

tldr: brakes, tires, suspension, steering, corrosion, glass, wipers, emissions, lights (not only the mere presence, but full headlamp pattern test and certification, US symmetric lights are not legal), horn, number matching, millage gets logged. All standardized and going into same database. In Germany they go overboard requiring TUV certified everything nonstandard on the car, things like custom bodykits, non oem rims, bullbar, towing hitch need TUV.
