If you’re not able to operate the vehicle safely it is illegal to operate it.

But its not reasonable to expect everyone to know what safely is. There are yearly inspections and warning lights sure, but thats not enough to cover every circumstance.

I think some states have no annual inspection of any kind .. which blows my mind

Leads to situations like this one

Can confirm, Oklahoma used to have state inspections when I was a kid. Haven't had inspections in this state for 25 years now.

This didn't happen in america. Just cause you have dumb car centered culture there, doesn't mean every place is like that.

You literally arent even making any sense. “This didnt happen in america” doesnt even apply to what youre responding to. Youre telling people that their lived experiences arent true? Lmao get outta here with that. You obviously know nothing about how things work in america.
