I always wanted to take one of those inspection machines apart. I always wanted to know what they were doing with that inductive pickup they place on top of the engine and how that CO/NOx pickup on the tailpipe works.
At one point, I almost designed a fake OBD2 port to throw the inspection. Maybe when things get more stupid, like mobile red light cameras and special pavement markers for 'proper' spacing intervals come here in the NorthEast.
