Comment | I am writing to stress my deep opposition and concern with this proposition. I am a person who cares about the environment and wants to leave a healthy planet for my children. I feel this way and personally do not mind having my tires inspected—this is a personal choice. That is not the issue. The issue is with your organization trying to criminalize not complying with your standards. It is one thing to launch an information campaign to try to raise awareness and persuade cooperation. That is fine. It is a completely different thing to try and fine and even possibly incarcerate a person because of something as insignificant as not wanting to have their tires checked or having the burden of providing proof that a check was or will be done. This idea is another example of how out of touch and authoritative our country and state has become. We are Americans, not cattle. Inform the people of the hazards, give them the all of the facts and let them decide. Stop the bureaucracy, end the madness. This is just another encroachment by our ever growing government and it is time to just say enough is enough! If your arguments are compelling enough the people will conform, if not, maybe the case is not as strong as you believe. Either way the choice should be ours, NOT YOURS. Respectfully, Carlos A.
