   he's referring to emissions checks that are done by reading various   
   sensors in the vehicle via obd-ii, versus the older tailpipe checks,   
   sometimes done on a dyno and sometimes while idling in the inspection   
   bay, depending on the state.   
      
   if the sensors report no issues, the vehicle passes.
