last time i took my car to get inspected, i dont remember it taking 15 mins per car. i went during lunch and there was this sign that said there was a 23 min wait. ok... it was 12:30, so i didn't think much of it. while on line for 25 mins, i saw two cars actually go into the inspection hub. i dunno if any cars actually left the hub, but i know two went in. is it normal that a car inspection that take long? i seriously don't remember it being like this. or are the workers in nj just retarded?

Here in Florida, it takes about 0 minutes per car since we don't have no stinking inspections!

My inspection in June took all of 2 minutes, and that was at the end of the month when it's usually busy. (NJ)

In Ohio, we have random inspections along the highway (which I have seen happen once in my time of driving, and I was able to drive past because they only took so many cars and then closed it again)

Maryland - it gets inspected every time you start a new registration. Renewal and transfers don't count. So this usually amounts to "once" :p

And then every couple of years they make you come and get an emissions test - if you fail, you have to blow like $200 pretending to fix it, come back, fail again, and they'll waive you. Takes about 5 minutes per vehicle for this.

NY - my last few inspections took about 20 minutes...

And... I knew they didn't but how come some states don't have inspections ? I can't believe they let sh!t cars (like the ones you would see on Pimp My Ride before they're worked on) roam the streets legally. That can't be safe.

this sucks... now i gotta get up early to do this shiat, since it is apparent that the lunch crew are slow mofos. hopefully, the morning crew is better.

No car inspection in Illinois. :) Decent DMVs too, when one is outside of the Chicago area.

i went the the public dmv inspection place, and i don't think they make appointments. i could call up a garage to make an appointment, but i gotta pay them to inspect my car. the public dmv inspection place is free... well.. up until i have to bribe the dude for something.

New Jersey I believe, that by law, all stations are Full-Serve.

Although only 7 locations. The online reservation seems to be borked.
