How often do you need to get your car emissions tested?

U.S. state laws control automobile emissions testing, so the rules are quite varied. The states also change their laws frequently and there may be different rules for cars of different ages. The best resource for this information would be the official Web site of the state of interest. The requirement could be every year or every two or three. In some states older cars are required to be tested more frequently. Much of the time a test is required with any ownership change. Usually, any more, modern cars are exempt from emissions testing on the grounds that their design and onboard emissions control systems prevents them from producing excessive emissions.
