Mike, here in Illinois it was once required for all pickups to have a safety inspection every six months. That was dropped maybe 25 years ago? My son has a one ton truck, and I notice a sticker in his windshield, and he also has a tandem trailer with an inspection sticker on it. I do not know the current laws concerning safety inspection, other than knowing that the vehicles I presently own are no longer required to be inspected.
The truck I mentioned below, with the expired sticker, was actually owned by the state of Illinois, and the ticketing officer was an Illinois state patrolman. We usually enjoyed a little leeway with our state vehicles, to the point of getting them inspected once a year, instead of the required six month intervals. Nevertheless - the law is the law, and the officer had every right to write a ticket and require a tow. It's funny when it happens to one of your work buddies, but a travesty of justice when it happens to ME!! It was especially funny in this case, because the guy who received the ticket/tow bill is as tight as the skin on a bean, and we reminded him about it every day for months afterward. Big alligator tears. . .
