Smog check: exemption: collector motor vehicles.

California SB1392 aims to exempt certain collector motor vehicles from smog check requirements. This means that owners of these vehicles, which are typically older and considered classic cars, may not have to undergo regular emissions testing. The bill is intended to ease regulations for collectors while still addressing air pollution concerns.

Supporters of SB1392 argue that this bill recognizes the cultural and historical significance of collector vehicles, allowing enthusiasts to enjoy and maintain their classic cars without the burden of frequent smog checks. They believe this will help preserve automotive heritage while still keeping a focus on air quality.

Critics of SB1392 contend that exempting collector vehicles from smog checks could undermine California's efforts to reduce air pollution and combat climate change. They worry that this exemption may lead to increased emissions from older vehicles, potentially harming public health and the environment.
