let's not turn the site into foxnews, the title of the article is written to grab you, it's called bait or a hook, most towns and cities have some sort of ordinances to stop people from turning their homes into cheapo garages where some clown is working on the side and dumping oil and chemicals all over the place, it's also very illegal to paint cars without a booth because regardless of what you care about your own health, the health and air of your neighbors and others matters, some places simply have nowhere for you to take the used oil or other waste products, my town allows us to drop these off at the transfer station........can you imagine how many illegal shops are being run in cities like Sacramento or LA???
