Bring back the rolling 30 yr smog exemption.

I usually dont sign petitions but this is an important one.

Bring Back the 30 Year Smog Exemption

I just want to be able to work on my car without the cops telling me to fix my exhaust because it's too loud, even though everything on it is legal. It's ridiculous

I have a 1977 vw beetle that I can't get tags for because the state still asks for smog check. The car is almost 40 years old. Come on! How can it pollute the air any different than my 1970 vw baja? They have the same motor :/

Bring Back the 30 Year Smog Exemption

Should return to the way it was.

I thought it was still in affect

19 years old, just bought a 1979 datsun 620. It was my dads first car and i wanted to build a sort of tribute to his old truck. But i cant drive it because it failed smog. Im stuck in a corner and will probably have to cough up 5 or 6 bills to get her on the road again

My car is 35 years old thats older then me its not fair i hope this works !!!

Put the law in California to the rolling 30 yr smog exemption

No more smogs after 25 years

My 1986 SR-5 / AE86 always tests with vastly low emissions. However, the guys testing the car disconnect one hose from my standard carb and falsely come up with timing of 10 degrees above TDC, when it is set at the factory setting of 5 degrees. That and a slightly high idle, caused my car to fail smog this year. Nothing had been done in two years to alter the timing and I only drive the car on a rare occasion. I say that if the car passes emissions. WTF does a slightly high idle and a slightly high distributor advance matter?

I'm a poor guy with a old car that does not smoke and runs well but just fail the smog test because my timing was off. The car runs perfect. It would be nice to see the 30y exemption back.

It's not fair for classic car owners to trailer queen a car just cause it don't pass smog.

Smog Exempt Cars older then 1981 at Least

Its all BS. ca. won,t be happy till we are riding bikes or in a Prius , so many other things to address, most of the old cars have been crushed already. I have lived in ca. for 45+ years, it WAS the greatest place on earth, Truly a love/hate relationship, RIP Ca.

i own a 77 chevy k30 and a 73 k20. literally not a difference between the trucks from the factory. doesnt make any sense to me why one is exempt and the other im forced to have in AZ

We have classic cars, one have to be smogged. It makes us hard to keep this car on the road.

I have a 1978 Toyota FJ40. This thing has clean emissions from the tailpipe. But, because I have an electronic ignition and other modifications to my engine, it wont even pass visual. B.S. California.

Young enthusiasts pursuing a classic that was once a charished memory with an old family member etc. Now struggling to make a dream possible with parts that no longer exist. Classics don't belong in garages, they belong on the roads. Taming a beautiful wild animals, isn't it wrong?

It's getting harder and harder to find smog parts for my car that's 33 years old! It's time they reinstated the rolling smog drop off!

The 30 year smog law should be put back in place. I have a 76 VW bus that requires a smog test which is B.S. It's all about the money for California.

I have an 86 Bronco 49 state model with only 70k original miles, but finding all the components to make the smog systems functional is difficult. Those systems were only band aid fixes by the manufacturers at the time. I can make my bronco run cleaner than new with some of today's aftermarket injection and ignition products.

It was ridiculous for them to repeal the law like that. These cars age and and it's harder for them to keep up with the increasingly strict standards. It's unfair.

30 year rolling exemption

Please reinstate 30 year smog exception

My car is a 1977, I drive it less than 300 miles per year. In fact pre 1985 vehicles on the road today account for less than 1/2 of a percent of all cars on the road. Most are owned by collectors such as myself who don't drive these cars very much. They don't make up even a fraction of the pollution you are worried about. Please make it easier on us who have to jump through all kinds of hoops every other year to get our older classics smogged.

Plzzz reinstate 30yr floating exemption. I beg you.

I have a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am that is only driven on weekends or special events, approx 300 miles a year>

Bring it back

1985 Corvette here, oem exhaust doesn't exist anymore. Only aftermarket.

Allow vehicles that are a part of history and which old parts are unattainable to stay on the road.

I have a 1981 Datsun that thankfully has always passed smog every two years but I do worry about the time when it won't and I hope that never happens. When a car hits 30 years old it should be exempt from smogging. For a lot of us that car is no longer a daily driver but a toy to take out for joy rides and car shows. Enact the 30 year law now!

We need this.

calif sucks gid rid of the dmv on lic plate for the car no tags no more

Yes pass this

Dear Assemblymember, AB-550 allows auto enthusiasts to preserve vehicles of historical and sentimental value. While 30 year old vehicles lack the advanced emissions controls of their contemporary counterparts, they are unlikely to be daily drivers and significant contributors to air pollution. In addition, small businesses and jobs are created to support these older vehicles once the original manufacturer stops building parts. Please consider supporting this bill. Thank you for your time. Regards, Jeff

Who cares what engine and/or aftermarket parts are on a 30 year old vehicle as long as it passes that year smog requirements from the tail pipe (s). In most cases, these are cleaner than the originals still out there.

30 years works for me, most cars that age are off the road anyway.

1986 Toyota Corolla SR-5. The original carbureted engine is out and is being replaced with a fuel injected engine from a 1989 Toyota MR-2.

I have a 1976 VW Bug that was my first car, that I have owned for over 20 years that I still have to get smogged. It gets more and more challenging to smog this car which means I may not be able to drive it any more. I wish Arnold Schwarzenegger had been wiser before creating this exemption.

I think a 25-35 year rule is sensible!

Bring back the 30 year limit on smog tests. Have a 77 that is 40 years old and runs beautifully. It is ridiculous to smug a 40 year old car. When I have had it on the freeway, I am amazed if I see even one car of mines age out there. There are soooo few classics on the road. Many people give a thumbs up when they see a classic. Please reinstate the 30 year smog rule.

Bring back 30 year limit on smog tests. A 30 year old car can produce LESS POLLUTION if it is upgraded to a newer type engine, that the current smog laws does not allow you to do!!!!!!

Bring back the roll over

Raise it to 1990

Reainstate

Yes please.....make driving fun again!

Wish to renew the 30-year rolling exemption in California.

Forcing us to smog our cars dicatates what is considered a classic and historical vehicle. Cars from our generation aren't appreciated the way they should be by smog laws and the way they are set up. Reinstate the rolling exemption. There is no reason why anyone should have to smog a vehicle after 30 years.

stop them cold!

get back to make sense 30 year smog exemption - finally

we do not drive them except for few days on week ends the are classics now 30 yaers rule please. do not kill the business.

Need to bring this back have a 78 lincoln mark v that does not need a smog check Do the smog law for all the yuppies out there.

Allowing newer engines in older cars make the air cleaner! We must allow 30 year exemption, or find legislators that will allow classic automobile enthusiasts to enjoy there hobby!!!!!

Waited 40 years now for my 1977 that I only drive to car shows on summer weekends!

Yes, bring back the 30 year exemption!

yes please bring the 30 year exemption back .

It is ridiculous how expensive it is to get an older vehicle smog checked down in San Diego. I own a 1978 C20 with a 350 and spent damn near $100 just to do a smog check for registration I don't want to pay that every 2 years. Not to mention that most of the smog gear that was put onto that truck was ripped out or just bypassed to give it the true classic muscle sound and feel.

Our vehicles do less harm than our government. Stop charging and robbing people of their money. A yearly fee is ridiculous. Let us be free.

30+ years should be exempt. Stop playing with regulations California.

It’s completely unfair to have to expect my 40-year-old air cooled Volkswagen to pass California emissions. It cost me hundreds of dollars every two years to get it to pass. This law is unfair and needs to be rescinded or the 30 yr law needs to be put back into affect.

They know what they are doing. They should offer to buy me a new car if my 1982 car can't comply with 2018 smog laws.

Damn this state and the dictatorial asses that run it!

Enough, it IS TIME

Even the rolling year like other states would be a good start again.

My truck will be 30 years old soon and has been in the family the whole time. Licencing fees keep climbing and the smog program seems intent on failing people because inspectors think a replacement part is an illegal modification.

The number of old cars on the road today is very minimal compared to new cars. If the vehicle is 30+ years old then there is a strong chance that the owner of that vehicle want to keep it as long as fisicaly possible. Also all the new cars on the road are very boring designs. Nothing set them apart any more.

Keep old cars around, they need love too!

It is far better for the environment to keep one car working for 40+ years than replacing a car every 5 years. For ever single American family typically have 2 cars and if they are replacing them every 5 years that is 12 cars in 30 years that end up needing to be dealt with for scrap or leaking our into the environment simply for they don't want it anymore. Encouraging people to take care of and maintain 1 car to LAST save the environment and reduces our carbon footprint for less cars need to be made. Less junck cars will be road hazzareds and that can save lives! Small encentives like this can encourage people to take better care of what they have and see the importance of quality over quantity.

We have to somehow get the bill up and running and passed ASAP! How do we get rid of the politicians that vote against it?

Bring back the rolling 30 year smog exemption. Getting harder to find someone to smog my old truck even though it always passes. There are people out there who can't afford to buy new vehicles. Why punish the ones who take care of their 30 year old vehicles and still have many years left on them.

This bill was repealed because poiticians' like Jerry Brown want us all to stop driving and take mass transit. Tester want to charge me twice as much to test my old 30 year vehicle as they do to test my new one. Why should people who take care and maintain their older vehicles have to pay. There are not enough old vehicles out there to matter. Vancouver Canada one of the most congested cities on the planet. Stopped smog testing on all vehicles. Because most vehicles do not pollute anymore. I think this is just another cash cow for the California politicians.

Completely agree wih comments that the amount of vehicles 30 years or older has low impact. Very small percentage. Bring back the 30 year rolling smog exemption. California needs to use common sense and remove the reactionary politicians.

Think all performance sales tax that woul be bought and highschool kids could afford the1989 model vehicals and ideas that never get discovered from high school kids and keeps an interest in studys

My F-100 is 42 years old , I bought it new, still have to smog, I was recently pulled over and ask if I would like to participate in an road smog check, your kidding me right, the amount of vehicles required to set up this smog check pollute more than my truck in 5 years, I drive less than 1500 miles a year, and like someone here said my truck always passes but it to the point nobody even knows how to smog it.

most of these older cars died due to cash for clunkers.

REINSTATE THE 30-YEAR EXEMPTION NOW!!!! Give us a freakin' break in California!!

30 year rolling smog exemption works the best for people. Shouldn't that be what matters?

Cali has the best cars and we cant even drive them legally! We need to be able to show these great examples of cars on the road again

I believe it should be up to we the people.

Have a 79 jeep. Was told at a smog station they would not do 70's cars. Took and passed perfect. There is not enough cars 30 and over to make a dent in smog , and a lot have been restored to good running condition.

Please reinstate the 30 year rolling exemption. We need those classics back on the streets.

This just another CA Demorat money grab!

CA is circling the drain and this is their focus. Divert all monies o feed house and clothe the democrat sanctuary seeker.

Reinstate 30 year smog exemption. These classics on driven by a small minority of people who use them for leisure, not day-to-day commuting.

Cars with no catalytic converter show not have to be smogged. They are at a disadvantage

the old cat. converters burn hydrocarbons so hot that they make oxides nitrogen just a different plllution

I love this see this bill passed..look @state Washington no smog in the whole state..OREGON only requires if you lived in Medford or Portland area for smog 21 years older no smog.

smog will go down if ca. bans illegal immigrant driver lic.

Smog repeal

Old cars rock

need to be reinstated

i have an old motorhome and it is a pain to get it smogged a lot of places dont have the old machines any more

This is critical for restoration of our Constitutional Property rights

Reinstate CA 30yr smog exempt

I still drive my 1979 Chevy C10, Short Bed. Passes smog every two years, but it is 41 years old! How many 1979 vehicles dis you see driving on the freeways everyday lately?

Some states are doing away with smog program all together because the air is significantly cleaner than it was in the 70s-80s and the majority of newer cars are not going to let it get worse again.

Undue burden on the joyous classic car industry and hobby. Statistically serves no purpose in CA, let alone globally.

.

A LOT OF GREAT VEHICLES ARE NOT BEING RESTORED NOR USED BECAUSE OF THIS. LETS TURN IT AROUND AND GET A SPONSOR FOR THIS TO BECOME A BILL THEN A LAW.

We really need this 30 year law to pass or I will be moving out of California so I don’t have to smog my 1992 truck and have all the high taxes or cost of living.

We really need this to pass so we can enjoy our newer classic vehicles in California.

I'm moving back to California. My vehicle get 30 mpg hwy. And burns cleaner than some of the early generation hybrid electric.

Lets do this!!!!

Please change law asap>>

Repeal

This is the only fair act California could ever achieve again. Any vehicle domestic or import should be exempt after 30 years. Even now 35 year old imports are still better on smog than older classic carbonated cars. It’s just never made any sense. Especially as parts are harder and harder to come by for any car 30 years or older. Classify any car as a classic after 30 years. Especially if driven less than 5,000 miles a year. Get with the program California.

Come on people! How many 30 year old cars are out there? The ones that are are only still around because theyre well taken care of. Buying replacement parts for those old vehicles is already exoensive enough. Please dont put our hobby out of reach

Even the 30 year exemption was already much harsher than other states that stop vech. smog tests after 20 to 24 years. Also remember Florida & Washington voters stopped smog testing 3 + years back. about half of North Carolina is now smog exempt now. What Arnold S. signed in also hurts the poor and Sr. Citizens

Bring it back

More bloated bureaucracy from the same govt. that continues to allow corporations to destroy the environment on a massive scale, while leeching off of the People with made up fairytales about how more regulations will make it all better.

Hey, you're awesome! Are you accepting volunteers? I have a TON of experience working with local businesses and building websites. I've found that one of the best ways to get to know people is by helping, so I'd like to offer some of my time to you. Please give me a call or text 718-673-9411. Look forward to speaking with you and showing you how I can help! - David

I own four post 75 GM cars needing smog. It is a hassle, and it is getting worse when these cars run better and cleaner than new.

It should have never been unstated in the first place. Climate alarmist need to drop dd

The majority of cars that are over 30 years old are very well taken care of and if they're like mine pass the smog test every time easily, in fact the technician always tells me that the data on the test is cleaner than most of the newer cars. Please give a break to people that are limited income and can't afford a new expensive to drive, license and insure car.

Reinstate 30 year old car smog exemption! Our classic cars run clean unlike our dirty bureaucrats

Absolutely needs to happen.

Make it a law is hard to find parts

I encourage everyone who owns a car 30 years old to sign this petition. We don't use them as much, they are not polluting the environment, that's an excuse of burócratas to feel they are doing something.

why aren't vehicles older tan 20 yo exempt. Not right. Especially my 97 BMW

Who decided to rescind the "Rolling Year Law"? Was it an elected official or a Bureaucrat? Eather way, I say impeach or fire their A$$. Who is accountable? Someone is, vote these ba$tard$ out.

California is the only state to my current knowledge that does not continue to give older vehicles smog except status...Other states with smog emissions like Oregon allow for vehicles that reach a certain age to become smog exempt. With the continuing rise in the cost of living in California purchasing a new vehicle that passes these restrictive smog laws is not economically feasible.

Please do this, parts are getting expensive

Smog tests on older cars have become ridiculously expensive and serve no one but slapdash smog stations.

Licensed smog check technician for over 30 years and have first hand experience of how stupid California is

CA needs to reinstate the rolling smog exemption. Most cars 30+ years old are collector or show cars, are well maintained, and are driven infrequently. Let's prevent government from quashing the collector car hobby.

Smog exemption

Thank you !!

Please enact the 30 year rolling smog exemption bill!!

Do away with the smog for the older cars

Needs to happen, screw the car enthusiasts. Young working class needs a break

Yes, lets get the rolling 30 year smog exemption back.

How many pre 90s cars are even on the rd these days? Stop hurting classic collectors
