OT: CHP Roadblock for Emmissions Dyno....
Ran into this CHP 'voluntary' emission testing dyno this morning and just had to take some pics. They use a Mustang dyno, no WHP or TQ readings unfortunately or I'd have thrown my Benz on it. Your taxpayer dollars at work....

I'm all for clean air but I don't get this. We are required to have an emissions test done every two years when we renew our registration here in the People's Republic of Cali, so what is the point of this? Go after cars with expired registrations, DUIs whatever but don't waste enforcement resources on this stuff.

If they gave a print out with 3 consecutive dyno pulls and signed classification forms they might get some more volunteers . Who has time to waste randomly pulling over and testing their car? Why would anyone do that? Unless you are a retired senior with nothing to do I don't understand why anyone would volunteer for this...

Haven't seen one of these for a while, I'd thought they stopped doing it. Supposedly its done to 'calibrate' the required smog checks. You know, the one every 2 years that tuned cars swap stock parts back, do test, then swap back again their mods.
My response would have been: NO (and I'm stock)
The other setup they have is some sort of infrared scanner they will setup along freeway onramps with a camera setup. Supposedly will send letters to gross polluters for smog check.
