DMV will
investigate reports on any vehicle with a Nevada registration, including
heavy-duty diesel trucks and vehicles based in rural areas.
The registered owner is first sent an advisory
letter. If we receive multiple reports on the same vehicle, or if the report
is made by law enforcement or DMV staff, the letter will require the owner
to bring the vehicle to a DMV Emissions Lab for testing. Failure to comply can
result in a hold or suspension on the vehicle's registration.

Please also note that law enforcement
officers may issue citations for excessive smoke under Nevada
Revised Statute 484.611: "The engine and power mechanism of
every motor vehicle shall be so equipped and adjusted as to prevent the escape
of excessive fumes or smoke."
