There is nothing wrong with jacking it up with a floor jack if it's done in the proper manner.
I forgot to mention he did not have the proper adapter. That is why I freaked out.

It says "may be affixed" - not "shall" be affixed.
This just means the dealer/mfr can put a sticker on your car even they are not an official inspection place (as Tesla is not) but they do not have to. Some police and even parking maids will ticket or pull over for no inspection sticker so worth getting one to avoid the hassle and unwanted interaction with law enforcement -- but not legally required.
Why is the wording this way (my bolding) ?
I'm not disagreeing with you, by the way. I just don't understand the choice of ambiguous language.
Glad I don't live there. Sounds like a scam to give more business to the auto repair industry. I could see every third or fifth year.VA makes you get your car inspected every year...
Smog checks in NoVA are every (what) two years unless exempted. Looks like NC does yearly safety checks as well.Glad I don't live there. Sounds like a scam to give more business to the auto repair industry. I could see every third or fifth year.

I like the safety inspections, as it keeps people from driving around in death traps. I've been to plenty of other states with no safety inspections and I've seen some terrifying things going down the roads (Saturn sedan with no seat back on the driver's seat, Ford Explorer crabbing significantly while going down the highway at 80+ MPH, RVs with blown suspension on one side just waiting to roll over in a sharp corner, etc.).
Really? I’ve lived in MD off and on for 20 years and haven’t seen this. Not sure what kind of neighborhoods you frequent.Completely agree! Just cross the bridge to DC or Maryland and see cars in all sorts of dilapidation on the side of the highway, sometimes _literally_ burnt-out on the side of the road! MD has very lax safety inspections AFAIK. Not so much in NoVA, and usually from out of state if they're on the shoulder.
States that politically oppose taxes tend to have a very long list of fees and a huge bureaucracy to collect and enforce them. The irony is that poor people are screwed because they have to shoulder an equal share of the fixed costs while being minor consumers.Glad I don't live there.

Is it free?If your car is in good working order it will sail through a VA state inspection. It's not a difficult test.
You don't like to fully read stuff do you... "may be affixed to the vehicle as required by § 46.2-1163" Now go and read 46.2-1163 and tell me where it says it is NOT required.
