What is the bond required for a business applying to become an inspection station?

The bond required for a business applying to become an inspection station is set at $10,000. This bond serves as a financial guarantee to ensure that the inspection station complies with all relevant state laws and regulations governing vehicle inspections. By requiring this bond amount, the state protects consumers and helps maintain integrity in the inspection process. If, for any reason, the inspection station were to fail in its responsibilities or commitments, this bond can be used to cover any potential losses or to financially address violations. The specific amount reflects an acceptable level of assurance that the inspection station will adhere to the standards needed to provide safe and reliable inspections for vehicles.
