Looks like it was approved ~17 August by CEC. Maybe someone wants to open a tire store on the CA and Nevada border?

The standards, approved unanimously by CEC commissioners, will save California drivers nearly $1 billion per year in gasoline and electricity costs, putting money back in their pockets. The standards will also reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by 2 million metric tons per year, equivalent to taking approximately 400,000 gasoline cars off California roads.

I like to disassemble things.
However, he's right in that some counties in fact do not require biennial smog testing
Again, a county can not require testing if they so choose. Not arguing that. That has nothing to do with the emission laws passed in Sacramento or in Washington. Not testing is merely not enforcing. I'm all for that as NY adopts retarded California shit as fast as it gets passed.

typical California, losing 70% of the tries available and only gonna cost a couple hundred bucks…according to Goodyear 🤦‍♀️


Bret Gladfelty, on behalf of Goodyear, told the commission that this will increase costs for consumers and said the commission had yet to resolve technical and legal issues with the rules.

In a letter to the CEC, Gladfelty had questioned the data the CEC released to the public about the cost of new tires, noting that while the commission says the price increases average about $6.50 per tire in phase 2, Gladfelty warned increase costs could actually end up being in the several hundreds of dollars.

The state is also going to employ a group to monitor tire sale and marketing, referring to the state AG any violations. After a period of time, because they just can't fucking stop, the rules will become stricter. In other words, you may not be able to register your vehicle if you purchase "illegal" tires out of state and install them on your car. How will they know? Ask Mr hair gel at one of his next podcasts and watch him bloviate on the matter.

This. This is why stupid ideas need to be nipped in the bud. Once it gets a foothold, it will spread. Hopefully the feds can slap this down.

There is something here that i don’t understand:
If “we the people “ disagree and reject policies implemented by elected politicians/officials, the simple remedy and solution is to vote them out of office
Obviously it’s not happening in California and therefore the only obvious and possible reason is because the majority of Californians agree with those policies
Sorry for you guys that disagree with the way California is run but you have been outvoted almost every single time
Live with it or move out but stop bitching about it
As for the out-of -state complainers, sorry but it’s none of your business , you have no say in the matter

biggest problem with that theory, is this board was not elected…and you already understand the “camel nose under the tent theory” so keeping non-staters out of it is a no go 😉

I lived there when it had only gone half retard. Now an "out of stater" it is my business because the fuck ups there then go on to ruin it for everyone else, turd in the punchbowl style. Everyone has a say in the matter because as California so wants, we are all under one big tent. If that's the case, keep your clownshow commission away from my fucking tires. Or carry on, hearing how being force fed twinkle tires is so much more admirable than legit concerns such as rebuilding burned down communities is pure gold. Makes for more tents I suppose.

Wrong, if your state want to adopt/copy California regulations and the MAJORITY of your state citizens don’t want it, your elected representatives would be voted out
Don’t blame California for your state adopting rules that you don’t want, instead blame yourself and your fellow citizens for not using your voting power
Btw, there are plenty of of exceptions to this tire stuff and track/race tires as well than motorcycles are not subject to to this deal
So, i don’t care
It’s always so much easier to blame someone else instead of of taking responsibility for what you do or don’t do

This strikes me as a bit disingenuous. So, on the one hand, states should get to regulate as they see fit, without excessive Federal intrusion, but only when it’s what “we” agree with? No state has ever been forced to adopt CA’s regs. Perplexing position.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. The majority here in NY don't want overreaching regulation but the city of NY is rather populous and clearly Democrat so that is what the rest of the state gets. NYC is tiny geographically, relative to the remainder of the state. If the state you reside in is big on abortion, etc, you get the whole package. CARB created/managed legislation gets a free ride.
California deserves every bit of the blame for the 17 other states that were then given the opportunity to embrace control over them. Thankfully, the Waivers aren't what they used to be.

This isn't about blame, you misconstrue. This is about fact but as you reiterated, you don't care.

That isn't exactly true. Think, pigs.

"While a law strictly enforced in California, Prop 12 has larger implications for pork producers throughout the nation. The state accounts for roughly 15% of the nation’s pork consumption but imports 99.87% of its pork products. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the proposition in May, ruling that states have the authority to pass laws on meat sold in the state which subsequently requires products produced outside of the state to comply. Thus, the 24-foot space requirement on all pork imported to California directly regulates how the pork industry in other states operates."
