Well, much like an ID to vote hurts the poor, there are many "hidden" fees that go along. Emissions testing on vehicles every where(not just Metro areas), this will mean newer cars or fixing up those old ones. This will only burden the less fortunate driving those old vehicles, the emissions test on the vehicle will be an added expense in and of it's self.....there are a couple of easy low hanging examples.....

And before you come with both feet, I'm all for reducing emissions. Just a simple fact that it will drive up costs on the less fortunate.
