I guess; just that. They could make money on it. I don't want to bring drugs into this, but it might help prove my point....

Drugs are illegal, everyone knows it, but, ppl still do it. there has been a "war on drugs" since when, ever? it is still illegal, ppl still do, and jails get over crowed. They send soldiers over to Columbia to fight the cartels, they die; and, drugs are still illegal, and ppl still do it. Some say if you legalize drugs and regulate them / tax them you can make them "safer" (i use that term a loosly as possible) and make money on them. Just like they do with Alcohol and tabaco and firearms. ppl dies from drunk drivers, smoking gives u cancer and ppl use guns to kill ppl.

now, you might ask, "should we legalize anything just b/c ppl want to do it, what about societies safety?". No, but ppl who choose not to do drugs don't not do them b/c they r illegal. ur not going to create more drug users if u "legalize" them and tax them.

Ppl will do what they want to do, weather you say it is illegal or not. certain things can't bend, like legalizing the killing of other ppl. But you you can't stop ppl from using drugs, so you might as well tax it. the government can't control every aspect of your life.

I'm getting off topic, my point is ppl will mod their cars. end of story. they will also drive them weather they pass inspection or not. The State would make soooooo much money b/c ppl will pay what they have to in order to do it 'legally". Now as far as regulation, i agree totally. CATS, mufflers, seatbelts, tire regulations (no slicks or anything unsafe, ect), age requirement, mileage limit, ect. ppl will agree to it. If u agree with the rules and regulations you can do it, I'f not it is reg inspection and reg for you. you won't have as many "illegal" cars as you think b/c not everyone has 2 cars that they use and keep one of them a limited use. Limiting the usage lowers pollution of the "hot rods". You get caught with a car that doesn't pass inspection b/c you modded it when YOU HAVE THE OPTION of getting "hot rod" reg, them it is a stiffer penalty. Age limit lowers the number of cars total. Even saying you have to be 25 to own or OPERATE a limited use car gets rid of the possibility of daddy registring the car for his son who is 17.

the end result, everyone is happy. no more illegal cars, no more ppl getting fined and bitching about it, and the state makes a boat load of money which is all they want anyways.
