LONGVIEW, Texas (KLTV) - In 2025 Vehicles in the State of Texas may no longer require inspection. The Legislature has given approval to House Bill 3297 which drops the requirement. Supporters of the bill say inspections are time consuming and inconvenient, but opponents say it could make Texas roadways more dangerous. KLTV's Jamey Boyum talks with the owner of Pine Tree Inspections in Longview who thinks dropping safety inspections is a bad idea. David Campbell has seven employees at his inspection business, and business is booming the ten days surrounding the end of the month.
