    Yep, poor people need cars to survive in the US. Barely any public transport outside of the very biggest cities. Only richer people can replace their rusty cars every 10 years.

      Well, the idea is to maintain the car and not just chug it out after 10 years. If you do this, then you shouldn’t fail a bi-annual test that determines whether your car is safe for the road or not.
