one of the top headlines for the day here in Tulsa is that the legislature passed a bill to move the repeal of the vehicular inspection law up from August 25th to sometime this week. vehicle owners had a dilemna if their inspection sticker expired before August 25th. should i comply and renew, or should i let it expire and risk the fine of $75? the people are worried that police officers will take advantage of those risk-takers and snag some extra money for their respective cities. the legislature has decided to help out these poor souls by having the repeal take effect this week instead (none of this really matters to me since mine is good through next April). i'm not certain why they're bothering with this. the price of the inspection sticker is only $5. it would have been much nicer is they'd moved up the date for the change in tag prices last year. i paid $200 for mine. three weeks later it would have only cost me $80, but the jerks-who-are-officers police department would have cited me as much as possible had i not had a current tag.
