New York Eliminating Safety Inspections on Vehicles?
Do you think it would be a good idea for the state of New York to do like other states and eliminate the need for vehicle owners to have and pass a yearly safety inspection?.

We have to pay and file our taxes, and we need to have the vehicles we own and drive inspected. Not that you need an explanation but if you don't pay your taxes, the state will eventually find out and you'll spend years trying to clear things up.

Fraud trial of George Santos to begin next month with an anonymous jury
CENTRAL ISLIP, N.Y. (AP) — The fraud trial against former U.S. Rep.

They won’t, however, be required to fill out a written questionnaire gauging their opinions of Santos when they arrive for jury selection Sept. 9, as his lawyers had requested.

She said questioning each potential juror in person would allow her and both sides to ask more varied and probing questions to elicit more truthful responses.
