Jay Leno’s star power wasn’t enough to persuade a California legislative committee to pass a measure to allow owners of classic cars like him to be exempted from the state’s rigorous smog-check requirements.

Imagine being rich and famous and this is your political cause. What an effing creep.

    Some old guy wanting to drive old cars deserves a “What an effing creep”? That’s just sad :(

      Maybe creep is the wrong word (though I wouldn’t be surprised if he was also that) but essentially saying “I should be allowed to pollute because my toys that no one else can afford are pretty” is certainly jackass-adjacent.
