As Harry Hairston<\/a> and the nbc 10 investigators discovered, there is a Pennsylvania State<\/a> policy that allows certain people to inspect their own vehicles. Heres harry with more. Thats right. Penndot has a policy allowing around 1,400 companies with fleets of 15 or more vehicles to inspect those vehicles with limited oversight. For you, it can be a gutwrenching event. Taking your car for an annual state inspection. Looking for leaks. Reporter hoping there are no repairs. But some companies and Government Agencies<\/a> dont have to worry about that. Theyre allowed to inspect their own vehicles. We follow this auditor through the audit process as he makes a visit to a penndot inspection station where penndot inspects some of its vehicles. Wolford goes through document after document after document then checks the mechanics licenses. And looks for inspection tools. Dial indicators. Reporter but what we never see him look at is their vehicle. You dont look at the vehicle, itself, thats been inspected. Why . Thats not part of our audit. Thats not part of the inspection audit for us to look at the current records. Reporter he says penndot does not require auditors to compare the inspection paperworks to the vehicles.

Reporter penndots spokesperson Richard Kirkpatrick<\/a> says the selfinspection policy started in 1929. Herbert hoover was president. Babe ruth hit his 500th home run. And america entered the great depression. Systems change all the time. Is that system outdated . Does it need to be updated . Again, i cant speculate on that. Our system, we feel, has been effective. Reporter following our reports on keystone quality transport, state police served the company with 20 warrants alleging forgery, tampering with records, and fraud. Police have not filed charges. But penndot suspended keystone as an official Safety Inspection<\/a> station for 34 months. The Ambulance Company<\/a> spokesperson tells us keystone will no longer inspect its own vehicles. Even after the suspension is lifted. Still, almost 1,400 companies and Government Agencies<\/a> will continue to selfinspect. I think that is outrageous. Reporter Pennsylvania State<\/a> senator Shirley Kitchen<\/a> serves on the transportation committee. We have to have a full proof system where we know that the vehicles are safe and maybe it will not be selfinspections. Reporter the senator plans on doing more research on the penndot policy. We are more than willing to work with our team to address legislation. Reporter in the meantime, an 85yearold policy continues. So its still the honor system . Very much so. Reporter should that be changed . No. No. Theres a lot of honest people out there. Most of our shops, 99 of all our shops are very honest.
