Inspections on Dynos in Virginia

["Jonathan Linkov" <njconn@email.msn.com>]

Spoke with the local inspection attendant at the Citgo yesterday.
Apparently all 4-wheel drive (he did not specify if it was full or
part-time, but I am guesing it would be full-time), all-wheel drive vehicles
are exempt from Virginia's new Dyno tests.  The $64,000 piece of machinery
that the state is making gas stations purchase to do the new, high-standards
tests, only drive one roller, not two.  So, any vehicle that is full-time,
or all-wheel drive gets the sniffer up the tailpipe (oooh, sounds exciting!)
still, which is easier to pass.  No idea about Maryland, and in DC, you just
pay the people off to pass the inspection still.
