Why do I need to have my car inspected?
Well, aside from the peace of mind you get from knowing that your vehicle is in safe operating condition, there are a number of other reasons to ensure your vehicle is inspected annually: Without up-to-date emissions and safety inspection, you cannot renew your vehicle’s registration.
Vehicles with no inspection sticker or an expired inspection sticker can receive fines
Sticker expired for less than 60 days: $25 to $50
Sticker expired for more than 60 days: $50 to $100
No inspection sticker: $50 to $100
You will also be charged a $88 mandatory state surcharge in addition to all the fines above, plus any additional fines assessed by the police or the NY DMV.
