Nope, but if you can afford wider tires, you can afford the inspection. I don't know about your area, but here, off-registration inspections are only $15. At registration, inspections are included in the registration price. I cringe every time I see a car with the tires ompletely outside the wheelwell because it is "cool". I can only imagine what would happen if they have to move the steering wheel in an emergency situation. Not all people have the common sense that you do and I don't want them modifying their cars without being checked.

Apparently you did. The current laws actually ALLOW glare to reach the oncoming driver's eyes. With old filament bulbs, it was a non-issue. With new technology, beam patterns and test points need to be rethought.

That is a state law. In Wisconsin, land of Harleys, we have no helmet law. Then again we also have higher fatality rates.

If you already wore them, then what is the big deal? If they make a law saying you must breathe, why should you care?

That again is the law in your area. In Milwaukee, you can cross anywhere along the street. It is only jaywalking if you are in the crosswalk against the traffic light.
