Most cars in the US are subject to emissions inspections.

Most cars are, but it’s generally not statewide and just focused on areas with high local pollution.

More to the point, it’s just an emissions test. It usually doesn’t test every car and (at least in the states I’ve done it) it’s just a computer checking that the cars computer is giving a normal report. There’s no safety inspection in most states and there’s no way to fail emissions for a safety issue if they did see something
