A bill awaiting to be signed by the governor would make mandatory vehicle inspections in texas a things of the past. This process is seen as a relief for car owners, and possibly a problem for drivers who share the road with cars that aren't meeting a standard. This could also have a negative impact on local auto shops in texas. Some shops that focus solely on inspections as their only way to bring in revenue this would have a severe impact, others shops that provide a broader range of services such auto repair, tire service, and auto detailing this may have a lesser impact to their business.
