So the closest states to N.H. are Michigan and South Carolina, a distance of about 600 and 900 miles away from New Hampshire. All the other New England states, Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut have yearly car safety inspections plus New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington DC, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia all have yearly car inspections.
The New Hampshire State Police are very much AGAINST this elimination of the N.H. yearly car safety inspection. The police want to do police work, and leave the car inspection to the car mechanic inside a garage with a car lift to inspect brakes, tires, rust, wheel bearings, lights, horn, defrost, steering, wiper blades, windshield glass, exhaust and other car safety items.
It's been this way in New Hampshire for 95-years, since 1931, and it was an excellent inspection system with 95-years experience.
