That's about as true as the news idiots who think Times Square is the "crossroads of the nation". Truth is, neither California nor NYC is anywhere near in touch with the thoughts, beliefs, and sentiments of the vast majority of the nation.
California has had stricter emissions laws than the Feds for what, 20 years? How many other states have followed suit? California allows lane splitting - how many other states do the same? California has "medical marijuana". Most states don't.
As California goes, so goes California. Most of the rest of us just chuckle at most of what y'all do.

EPA-compliant exhaust? Uuuugh.
I feel for you left-coasters, but then again stop electing politicians who will cave into these types of enactments.
SC isn't the greatest state in the union but man, we don't even have vehicle inspection.

Well that would really jack up the price for used stock mufflers and bring out the creative modifying geniuses.
Next CA will have to write a law and figure out how to verify/enforce mufflers with the stamp but have been gutted. They will end up spending more taxpayers $$ chasing their tail then what they bring in, but hey.........they can continue to say "look what great things we are doing!"

Not that I am for it but after reading the bill as amended this month it doesn't have the wording as listed in the OP. It was stalled at the request of the author. Doubtful it will pass. But the links listed by Chisel will explain what I read. Don't matter still gonna run my V&H's.
