I have spent my entire driving life in TX, and I've never seen a rolling road for inspections.

I've failed one time, and it was the visual check when the guy looked under my STi and saw no cats whatsoever and an external wastegate dumped to atmosphere. That was also the only time I've ever had a visual check.
