CA Moves to Require Smog Inspections for Heavy-Duty Diesel Trucks

FRESNO, Calif. (KMJ) — The California Senate has approved a bill that would subject heavy-duty diesel trucks to smog inspections.

Over the next ten years, SB 210 would affect about 1 million big-rigs, which the legislation’s supporters claim are a significant contributor to air pollution.

The trucks are said to be responsible for almost 60 percent of nitrogen oxides emissions.

SB 210 is now in the Assembly.
