Sec. 102-34.290 Must our motor vehicles pass State inspections?

Yes your motor vehicles must pass State inspections, where mandated.
(a) Each motor vehicle owned or leased by the Government must pass
Federally-mandated emission inspections in the jurisdictions in which
they operate when required by State motor vehicle administrations or
State environmental departments. You must reimburse State activities for
the cost of these inspections if the fee is not waived. GSA will pay the
cost of these inspections for motor vehicles leased from the GSA Fleet.
(b) Motor vehicles owned or leased by the Government that are
exempted from the display of U.S. Government license plates and motor
vehicle identification must comply with emission and mechanical
inspection programs of the State, Commonwealth, territory or possession
of the United States or the District of Columbia in which they are
regularly operated. Your agency must pay for these inspections, unless
the fee is waived. Payment for these inspections for motor vehicles
