for an average non mechanically inclined person that 9 dollar brake line will get marked up to 50 bucks with another 250 in labor on top of it. so they cant afford to put 300 into their 500 dollar beater. so what does the state do??? slap a sticker on their car that will get them a 180 dollar fine if they dont fix it. so now instead of being 300 in the hole theyre down 500 bucks for car that costs the same....in all honesty its a catch 22 and sucks....yes your brakes SHOULD be in top working condition...but who needs rear brakes anyway....a car will stop fine with fronts only...ive seen it!
