Here's some general information: http://dmv.ny.gov/org/brochure/what-do- ... -not-ready
I didn't even know what a "driving cycle" or "drive cycle" was. Apparently it's a minimized sequence of driving events to cause the vehicle's engine controller to execute and report status from each test system. This would be of concern if one wants to reset a Check Engine light and get the vehicle tested ASAP before it lights again.
I'm so happy my state eliminated annual inspections many years ago, recognizing that the aging out and replacement of the vehicle population had greatly reduced the benefit derived from the inspection program (and the burden of testing it placed on all of us). But I do wish more people paid attention to the state of their brake lights).
