Do I have to get a Massachusetts smog check on my car?
I’m moving to Boston for a job soon. While the city has great public transit, I thought I’d bring my old beater along so I can visit a few places along the way. I’m just not sure if my car will pass an emissions test. Does Massachusetts require a smog check?
