What action should be taken for a vehicle with 4890 miles and not previously titled?

For a vehicle with 4890 miles and not previously titled, the correct action is to issue an exemption from emissions testing. In Pennsylvania, vehicles that are newly registered and have low mileage, typically under 5000 miles, are exempt from the emissions testing requirement. This exemption is designed to streamline the process for new vehicles, acknowledging that they are less likely to produce emissions that exceed environmental standards due to their low mileage and recent assembly.

This exemption helps reduce the administrative burden on both vehicle owners and testing facilities, as well as encouraging compliance with registration and inspection requirements. It is important for vehicle owners to be aware of this exemption to avoid unnecessary fees or testing inconveniences. Being under the mileage threshold means that the vehicle has not yet shown signs of significant wear or potential emissions issues, which supports the justification for the exemption.
