Is the tech supposed to floor your car up and down the road for an inspection? I thought they were supposed to pull a wheel off to check the brakes and other assorted things listed in the NYS DMV brochure: > **[New York State Vehicle Safety/Emissions Inspection Program](https://dmv.ny.gov/brochure/new-york-state-vehicle-safetyemissions-inspection-program)** > > For Cars and Light TrucksThe New York State vehicle safety inspection program helps make sure every vehicle registered in this state meets the minimum standards for safe operation on public streets and highways. In addition, most vehicles are subject... Just curious. Thanks. ---

Never knew they were supposed to drive the car. This is the first time in 7 years I’ve had a vehicle leave the premises for a state inspection. ---

I know it’s not supposed to go any further than the parking lot. I wouldn’t have noticed but I heard it revving up outside so I went out there and heard it going WOT down the road. The kid even said he felt “fuel cut” after 10psi after I asked him why he drove it. This actually means his foot was resting on the clutch pedal which engaged the WOT BOX… Bullshit. ---

The only time ya "have to do a brake equalizer test is if one side of the cars brakes r lower than the others . No rule stating u have to . Any good tech can see a issue and what it is without driving it if the need for that test is met . U got told a lie and had your car hammered on ! Now go drink a few beers and complain to them ---
