My brother’s car has an overdue inspection by a few months. He is just getting the car back from some head work, and really wants to drive it on a small road trip this weekend. I know it’s asking for trouble, but how much trouble? ---

probably $50-100 plus whatever other tickets a cop might want to write. Just giving them reason to pull you (him) over ---

if the cop does not writes how over due it is your looking at sub 100… if the cop writes how over due the fines are endless… try to get a 10 day from the dmv or get the car fixed and make it pass ---

> [@justa4door](#): > > if the cop does not writes how over due it is your looking at sub 100… if the cop writes how over due the fines are endless… I didn’t think how long it was overdue had anything to do with it. AFAIK one day or one year is still the same “overdue inspection” ticket. ---

Learned something new today. It does matter how far overdue you are. > Is there a penalty if I do not get an inspection? > > You cannot renew your vehicle registration. Inspection stations electronically send a record of all emissions inspections to the DMV. The DMV must have a record that your vehicle passed an emissions inspection during the previous year. Keep the receipt of your emissions inspection sticker to prove that your vehicle was inspected. > You can receive a fine. If the inspection sticker on your vehicle has expired in the past 60 days, you can receive a fine of $25 to $50. If the inspection sticker is expired more than 60 days, the fine is between $50 and $100. If there is no inspection sticker, the fine is between $50 and $100. Mandatory state surcharges of up to $55 are added to the fine. > You can receive a parking ticket. A parked vehicle with no inspection sticker, or with an expired inspection sticker, can receive a parking ticket. [http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/vehsafe.htm](http://www.nydmv.state.ny.us/vehsafe.htm) So to answer the OP, assuming nothing else was illegal, you’d be looking at maximum fine of $155. Of course, if nothing else was illegal, chances are you’d just get the thing inspected. ---

> [@Haenszel](#): > > you don’t have a brother, Pat. Sure I do 😛 The car won’t pass without putting back ECU, injectors, and more. If anyone knows the car, they know what happened the first time those things were touched lol. I know, whine whine, but sometimes you just want to drive the damn thing. I just wasn’t sure if it was like having no front plate - i.e. more of a “fee” to not have one. 🙂 ---
