I've no idea what it's like in the great US of A, but I feel like over here in blighty, it could give a reason for an insurer not to pay out seeing as not only is the car not in 4 wheel drive, but a number of safety aids are also turned off along with it.
It's just food-for-thought anyway .
Scott,
I love the YouTube videos, keep up the great work!!!
And I appreciate you pointing out what you did and it is very relevant for where you are.
Over here in the People’s Republic of California we only care about Air Pollution. We have periodic checks to make sure that you are not releasing any more pollution then you have been allotted. Nothing extra. None Zero Zilch
By comparison if you break line is rusted thru and the fluid is dripping on the street then that fine and it the friction material is gone from your brakes and you can see sparks from the metal on metal that’s not a problem. And if you have rust holes big enough to put your hand through that’s fine too.
But absolutely no air pollution beyond your Allotment
Just my $0.02 (or two pence worth if you prefer)
Take care
Paul
Yep, we get to see the unbelievable death traps allowed on American roads

In the UK if a car fails its MOT test due to major defects, it cannot be driven unless those defects are repaired. A major defect indicates a serious safety issue that needs immediate attention. The MOT certificate is invalidated, and driving the car could lead to fines, penalty points, or even a driving ban.
I believe the MOT tester is liable too. Jules
