We have something like this in Colorado and I incorrectly assumed it was the same everywhere. I hope it goes through for California.

For real!

Denver about a decade or so ago did a smog study to see if we should change our policy. The question was are there outliers that should be focused on and everyone else left alone. The answer was yes, about 1% of vehicles on the road released something like 80% of the emissions we're trying to regulate. Mostly folks who've intentionally bypassed catalytic converters and so on.

I thought for sure this would be the tipping point to change policy to something more sensible, but nope. We didn't change a single policy....
