Spooler41, first, welcome to OCDO. You have just learned Forum Rule 5:

• (5) CITE TO AUTHORITY: If you state a rule of law, it is incumbent upon you to try to cite, as best you can, to authority. Citing to authority, using links when available,is what makes OCDO so successful. An authority is a published source of law that can back your claim up - statute, ordinance, court case, newspaper article covering a legal issue, etc.

We want you to look up the law yourself for two reasons. You will remember it better, and it will get you in the habit of looking things up before giving incorrect information on this forum.

They don't even test anymore .. they just hook it up to read the computer info.

They still charge like they test.

All a scam. Scammo-rammo.


I asked for a waiver when I failed one of mine ("bad" cat converter) basing it on (oh my, not State law):
In Connecticut the legislature passed CGS Sec. 14-164c that states:
“…The commissioner shall grant waivers from compliance with standards for vehicles which fail any required inspection and require an unreasonable cost of repair to bring the vehicle into compliance…”

And they said I had to spend $1500 prior to the waiver...the exact opposite of the law.

Idiots.

since it has been a few days on the request for a cite, I will help out the newer folks

And? Where is the requirement in the law for:



secured else where in the car? HINT: There isn't one. The unloaded firearm can be anywhere in the car except concealed on the person. That includes openly carried in a holster on the belt, sitting in your lap, duct taped to your forehead, hanging from the rear view mirror, etc.

I prefer the forehead, it eliminates the question of if I have a gun in the car. Also it is a Concealed Pistol Licence, not a CWP. There is a difference here in WA.
