The biggest difference though is the fleet of cars.
A vehicle older than 3 years has to be inspected yearly in Sweden. The breaks, tires and emission is checked and if the car fails (as in considered not road worthy) the owner has to fix everything for the car to be allowed on roads. This means that there are not as many dangerous cars on the road in Sweden as there are here (in my opinion).
Actually, most states require annual inspections here as well - and not just for older vehicles. In my state, every vehicle must be inspected every year, and can not be driven on public roads until it passes. The only exempt vehicles are those with antique plates, which have restrictions on when, where and how far they can be driven.
You are probably right. I just know that in NV they don't check breaks or anything, just emission in certain areas. And I am pretty sure they don't check in WI either.
