"During a Massachusetts State Inspection, the inspector shall perform visual and emission tests for cars and motorcycles, including on cars manufactured before 1997 and diesel vehicles manufactured before 2008. The inspector shall verify that all exhaust system components meet all current and applicable standards set by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)."
