Mga FAQ sa Vehicle Buy Back Program
Mga Madalas Itanong - Vehicle Buy Back Program
The purpose of the Vehicle Buy Back program is to reduce air pollution by taking older, more highly polluting vehicles off the road. If a vehicle can’t be driven because it isn’t registered or doesn’t pass a smog check, it isn’t on the road emitting air pollution. Therefore, only vehicles that are roadworthy, registered, and have passed their biennial smog check inspection can meet this requirement and qualify for funding.
