You ' re fucked . The state is in the middle of digitizing the entire inspection process so if one shop dings you for something , it gets put into a database as a red flag for the next shop that sees it . Your best bet is to find a backroads shop and do it as soon as possible as most stores haven ' t installed the equipment yet . Whatever the place you find to do it today is , they will be most likely out of business by the time your inspection comes up next year as this policy is meant to put an end to the longtime VT tradition of having your local mechanic pass your beater . You can thank the family that sued the shop in Barre last year for the majority of this . <| sep |> Lets hope they keep it for AM 4 ! <| sep |> Talk to her ? Tell her the truth of how long and how you started and that you need help to quit . That ' s IF you want to quit .
