The state Air Resources Board on Thursday adopted a resolution requiring repair shops to check tire pressure whenever they perform maintenance, oil changes and smog tests, beginning in July 2010.



what this really means is now the city officials will go around with tire pressure guages and fine you if you're not inflated right, kinda like how they cruise into parking lots and give front plate tickets.

FINALLY, what a load off my mind. You don't know how many sleepless nights under inflated tires have given me. Now I need to get to work on some over inflated tire legislation and I'll be able to sleep through the night!

Surely you all recall that the tire inflation issue was the cornerstone of the Obama energy policy.

So now when the state needs money, they'll just go around letting air out of people's tires and fining them.



When will the locking valve stem caps become available?
