BTW one thing we got on you New Hamster guys here-- we can pass safety even with an ABS light on. The only brake light that fails you is the red one.
A MIL lamp will flunk you, and taking the bulb out don't help because they hook to a computer (1996 +)

If the ABS light or check engine light is on it fails up here as well.

Text on the FAQ reads
[My Anti-lock brake light is on, am I going to fail inspection?
No, anti-lock brakes are not part of the state inspection. If the brake light is on, indicating a failure in the hydraulic braking system, you will be failed. This indicates a serious condition which must be checked immediately. The anti-lock brake light indicates a problem with that specific feature of your braking system. We do, however, suggest you have the brakes checked as soon as possible. ]
