The actual book used by inspectors READ THIS IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION! So we don’t have to know how your uncles moms cousins former room mate was failed because some dumbass who never finished his GED said it does. There is no arguing with the factual information.

good shit don.

my car passed today, YAY!

Nice info Don :tup:

VTSticky

That Don, what a guy.

Quick question:

I have a 93 ford tempo. The car has a crack in the windshield less than 11 inches long, maybe 8 inches at most. About 5 inches of the crack is located where the windshield wiper’s path is. Is that illegal?

Here is what I have found:

No crack of 11 inches long or longer is allowed if any part of the crack is within the area cleared by the windshield wiper.

* Windshield - check for presence and condition
* All windows - approved safety glass or rigid plastic and condition

Any “star” larger than 3 inches in diameter is
located in any area of the windshield. There
is a crack more than 11 inches long, any part
of which extends into the path of the
windshield wiper(s).

If I understand that right, I should be ok? The crack is less than 11 inches long.

Reason being, I went to get an oil change and inspection and they failed me for the crack. Last year it passed.

Lucky i have like a 4 foot crack. It blows

good shit? no don just like me is annoyed with how lazy you people are

some additional reading regarding the inspection program

x2 inspectrors are fucking dicks for cracks no matter what the size, i got a tape measure and if its less than 11 inches or a star less than 3 it passes

I’m getting a new windshield regardless, it vibrates the rear view mirror constantly. Just saying, its bullshit though.

I do what I can :stuck_out_tongue: It’s funny how you post in all of these threads, you do this for a living, and still people don’t listen…:lolham:

IB4mechanicdickpics.

any word on how they will use it? I read the whole article posted and didn’t see anything too particular

for what? to make sure the car in question is near the computer?

should just tape this over the camera so this is all it sees
