Car Inspection Fees Raised Across State
The Department of Transportation voted to raise motor vehicle inspection costs to eight dollars for cars and eleven dollars for trucks. Officials say the move, effective August 3, will offset higher labor costs at 1,900 inspection stations and add about 1.9 trillion in annual revenue. Current auto inspections cost five dollars plus twenty six cents for a sticker and tax.
