In California, smog tests are generally required every two years for vehicles that are more than six years old. Exceptions include electric vehicles, hybrids, and certain other vehicles that are exempt from testing. Additionally, new vehicles are exempt for their first six years. It's important to check local regulations, as requirements can vary by county.

How is photochemical smog created?
There are two major types of smog: photochemical and industrial smog. Photochemical smog is created through a reaction by which air pollutants are struck by sunlight, and form particulate matter and tropospheric ozone. The air pollutants that are most responsible for this type of smog are nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Photochemical is especially a problem in areas with many cars, coal-burning power plants, and the right weather conditions. Los Angeles, CA is a city that often has to deal with photochemical smog.

To obtain a copy of a lost smog certificate in California, you can contact the smog check station that performed the inspection, as they are required to keep records for two years. If you cannot reach the original station, you can also check the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) website or contact them directly for assistance. They may have access to your smog check records based on your vehicle's VIN. There may also be a small fee for reissuing the certificate.

Gas-powered cars that are four or less model years old don't need to be checked, and some cars are exempt. You can find more information at the related link.

No, there will be no problem at the DMV. The important thing is that the DMV has received your vehicle's smog check certificate number and the vehicle has passed. The reason for the smog test is simply for smog check data which is obtained by Sacramento and used for analysis.
