COPO said:In Southern Ontario, their stopping guys. Mine are going back on even though I'd rather leave them off. I just don't want the fine. I've read on the Web Site that the fine can range from 350-500 dollars. Just need to clean mine up since it's been off for 25 yrs. I really didn't expect I'd be ever be putting my smog back on after my enigine was rebuilt in '85. I drove it for 4 yrs with the smog on when I bought the car in '81.
This is from the Ministry of the Environment.
The Vehicle Emissions and Enforcement program officers perform random vehicle inspections across the province on vehicles of all ages to ensure that emission components that were originally installed on the vehicle by the manufacturer are present and functioning while the vehicle is being operated. If an inspection reveals that emission components are missing or not connected the vehicle owner/operator is required to repair the vehicle. Officers use a range of tools to bring about compliance with these requirements, including verbal warnings, written notices (violation notices), tickets, orders and plate seizures. The selection of the appropriate tool depends on the nature and severity of the violation as well as compliance history.
