Diesel Inspection?

Does anyone know whats the deal with the new jersey diesel inspection?
I heard that if you own a diesel under 17,999 gvwr but over 10,000 gvwr you dont have to go through inspection at all, including emissions? Is this true? What if its NOT a commercial truck? Lastly, I have mine registered at 10,000lbs is this eligible, or do I need to up it to 10,001? thanks in advance

ask at the station or dmv. at 10,000, you do not have to go i don't think. i am registered for 10,999, and have never been to an inspection station, and the 3 times i was pulled into a roadside check, i was flagged on as soon as they heard the rattle.

not true. my diesel is 18 years old, and it has never had an inspection sticker in the window. there is a grey area in the inspection laws that state vehicles registered between 10,000 lbs and 18,000 lbs are self inspecting.

All right ....you can ask 10 people this,and have 10 different answers.For me or anyone running a company having a inspection sticker on the window is priceless.no hassle from the law,insurance co (audit,workers comp, drivers ect)I run about 60,000 miles a year in nj some towns cops hassle you.state or township.

btw here is nj diesel inspection # 1- 609-530-4035.
let me know what they say
