Why is the New York DMV changing its motor vehicle inspection stickers?

- Auto shops and drivers across New York state are adapting or preparing to change the way their motor vehicle inspection process works.
As the new system is being rolled out, auto shops will transition from books of pre-written inspection stickers to blank rolls of sticker, where each individual inspection will be printed out on demand.
"There's a lot of fraud when it comes to inspection stickers, registration or tires on vehicles," Rensselaer County Clerk Frank Merola said. "You see it all the time."
Auto shop owners say the blank rolls of stickers will help prevent inspection stickers getting stolen.

Money hungry state, safety is not the reason.
They need money to support the migrants.
Getting rid of inspections solve this problem
You have no idea just how dangerous that would be
For the price that the mechanic charge for repairs, the mechanic shop can eat the cost.
Learn to fix your own car then. It's not the mechanics making the money. It's the shop they work for that does. You make it sound like mechanics have a quota to meet.
It is because they will eventually be charging us by the number of miles we drive a year.
That is why the new sticker list your current mileage
Need every 2 two years inspection
I'm all for this.
How about no inspection charges? Since they are the ones that want to know if our car is safe to be on the road, Why should we pay for something they want to inspect? We need to stop being sheeps and accepting this overreach and extortion of our funds.
Money is the simplest answer.
Why is NYS requiring inspections on cars less than three years old? It's not like a car is going to be falling apart in that short a time period. The most egregious part is that a new car, fresh off the assembly line requires the same inspection as a ten year old car.
Massachusetts requires inspections no matter how New or old the car is. Not too long ago it was slightly different a brand new car body dealer actually didn't have to an inspection sticker for the first year in at some point that got changed. I remember my father's brand new 2006 Honda Element didn't have an inspection sticker when we first bought it but it was inspected promptly the second year.
For anyone wondering just register your vehicle in another state I’m a business owner and as long as I keep up with maintenance what’s an inspection. Also the inspection won’t tell me if my vehicle will break tomorrow. I literally needed a battery for a box truck that ran like it just came out of the factory.
The news anchors are cancelling each other…. I don’t like the stickers… I called the police when I saw mine today to ask if they were legitimate. These display too much information. People don’t need to know how many miles are on everyone’s vehicle. And when you scan the code … what are these numbers signifying? These stickers leave too much information for other individuals to see.
Who cares if someone can see the mileage? I don’t see anything private about that🤷🏻♀️
@@cygcars07 Maybe you don't but others do. I have a guy that walks up and down my block with his dog and lets people know there inspection is expired, Which is a good thing. but lets say my car has 45,000 miles when I inspected it then the new sticker says 68,000 They will know I have driven 23,000 miles in one year. That is no ones business anyways, so why post it on my car? Now if you have a low milage car a thief might want to go after your car first before someone else's. Or you get pulled over by police and they see my inspection sticker had 42k on it, Now its six months later and I have 68k on it. Some of these cops are noisy as fook and will want to ask you questions "Never answer there questions" They will suspect your driving to other states ask you what are you doing driving so much, what type of work do you do, and even come to their own conclusions that you maybe trafficking something illegal, Drugs, Guns, Cigarettes, etc. How much I drive my car is my business and no one else's.
You may think I am being paranoid, but trust me cops and people come to their own conclusions. Again why does the amount of miles I drive need to be posted? Makes no sense.
@chrisdoescars8755 it is private hence why it's inside the car. Not on the outside
It's a problem because theives can see the mileage, get the Vin. Then come back and steal your car to sell overseas on the grey market.
@@Slacksfifth If theives getting VIN's was an issue then vehicles have been susceptible to that all along.
Preventing fraud on inspection stickers, for the mechanic $150 per hour labor plus parts.
Brakes are a favorite - new rotors and pads guaranteed $$$.
It’s 37$ not 21
It's 21 here in Albany NY
37 dollars if you are in the MTA service area that includes Long Island, NYC, orange, duchess, westchester, westchester, and rockland counties.
Oh, glad you mentioned this. I didn't remember what I paid last year, and I thought it was more like $30, so I was surprised when it was $37 by the place I did it at earlier today, so I was wondering if that was much more than last year or other people are paying this too now, or maybe it was always that way.
@@aaroneliezerpilchick8774 I forgot Putnam county as part of the MTA district
Where you at with the $21 inspections
Right here Albany NY
@LeemWills tf, mines been $37 since I've started driving in 2015.
Someone please explain to me what are the obligations of the contract.
What is the 7-10 years for?
Just a money scheme
is this damned state about to charge us for the miles we drive per year? do we not spend enough money on taxes!!!!! and noooo! don't increase the price of an inspection! we already spend so much to get our vehicle fixed!!!!!
NYS would love to bankrupt every little repair shop if they could.
Typical NYS charge the poor garage......
It will be a road tax in the future
Do they really think we aren't just gonna fake these ones🤣 there is always a way
"we"...you're so naughty!
I cant stand the additional info on the new stickers. Why does anyone walking pat your car have to know the mileage on your car. 🤷♂ And why does the VIN have to be also visible from a distance. Anyone trying to do something to your car will have all these info in advance without even coming close to your vehicle. 🤦♂
That information can all be accessed through your plates. Which are public information.
@@cygcars07 Wow, I didnt know you could get the vin by just normal search. But you cant get things like mileage estimate without paying for like carfax or other advanced search engines. I just feel its unnecessary that it's right in your face.
I mean I can google anyone's name and find out family members and where they live etc. That doesn't mean it's OK to wear my drivers license as my ID card in public.
The vin is right under the stickers on the car lol
@@mikeyo1990It’s about the information “all up in your face” I’m worried about.
You normally had to strain your eyes or do extra work of looking up license plates online to find a VIN. Right now anyone with 2k dashcam can pick up your mileage and VIN from a distance. It is just like comparing you wearing an ID card to you printing your name and date of birth on your T-shirt. Anyone interested will find that info regardless, but making it visible at a distance is like you announcing it.
Maybe I’m just the weird one that loves low profile lifestyle 😢
@@beigefox6579 have you seen the sticker in person? The stamped vin on your car is way bigger than the sticker
The car inspection in nys is irritaring, enraging & unnececssary. Instead of listing what is checked, it is easier to say what isn't checked!!!!! And there's always something wrong!!!! The Democratic Peoples'Republic of NY does all that for one reason: To harass the driver!!!! It is the main reason that I left nys & went to Connecticut where the inspection consists of only an emissions test & seeing that the Cat Con is in place.....every 2 years.
We need to default from nys registrations and inspections. We have to fight and pay to drive our property. And 99% of shops, the non money hungry ones don't want a inspection price increase. They are the good ones that are for the ppl
Not true every shop wants to increase the price it’s been $21 for years it’s not enough money to even break even it’s not about greed it’s about making enough to atleast break even. It’s a big responsibility having a machine and we make nothing off them. For the most part inspections don’t effect my sales if a car fails most of my customers would fix it anyways because they want their vehicles to be safe. We make $14 on an inspection that’s not enough to even pay my technician to do it then we still have to pay for Internet, paper, toner and it does use electricity. If the computer breaks it’s $1100 to buy one from the state and they are used not even new.
@@peanutbutterisfu true. Why even do inspection tho, if every shop stoped doing it it would end inspections
It's been $37 downstate for decades
21 here in Albany Ny
@@LeemWills downstate counties have metropolitan commuter area surcharges on everything. Cell phone bill, gas tax, inspection etc.
Yeah it dint cost shit to print that sticker you will make ur damn money back
……It’ll not cost……what?!…..it’ll not cost, what?!…
All new machines Another added cost to mechanics that will pass it on you
So cops are going to be worried about inspection stickers now smh lol
It's not the cops that will ticket your car it is the traffic agents above all around giving parking tickets that will check the inspection sticker. The ticket will be dismissed if you get the inspection done within a certain period of time.
Useless process in the state of NY! NJ does it the best a brand new vehicle you don’t have to get an inspection for 5 years. Should be a nationwide law.
Inspections are a joke.
reflecting the state government?
@@tedlahm5740 the mechanics charge $20 for the first test, if you don't pass it is $30 for the 2nd test, and then you pass. The whole thing is a money grab and a fraud.
$30 dollars in Massachusetts another blue state Florida no inspection red state
Illinois , Washington state, Oregon and Colorado doesn’t have it either. But they do have emissions in the Chicago area and other cities in the other states alone. Texas , Missouri, North Carolina and Louisiana have safety inspections and emission testing and all of those are red states. So honestly, it doesn’t matter if it’s a red or blue state. But emissions are required in most states that have a bigger population
it's for your safety 🤣🤡
I DON'T KNOW WHERE HE GOT $21 FROM IT'S BEEN $35 FOR AN INSPECTION IN NY FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS AT LEAST. IF HE'S BEEN CHARGING $21 HE IS RIPPING HIMSELF OFF..........
He doesn't get the money, the state does. Just safety inspection is $10, safety/emissions is $21. You must be near a big city where they have enhanced emissions testing.
This new NYS auto inspection system is great idea. I love it as a consumer and it will help in many ways such as fraudulent old stickers on vehicles that do not pass NYS Inspection. I just love ❤️ it. It’s going to reduce pollution tremendously from vehicles that do not pass.
Bot
Well that’s why my vehicles are registered in states that do not require inspections
