You probably aready found this reference, but at least it's a list of what will be inspected...
Vehicle Safety Inspection
If you want an actual copy of the inspection certificate, you might want to go to an authorized inspection station and see if they can help you out. Good luck!

You should be able to find what you are looking for from here. http://www.dsd.state.md.us/comar/SubtitleSearch.aspx?search=11.14.02.*
I only want to fix what I have to right now, it has a long list.

Would THIS face lie?
I think it is mostly a safety thing...You know, the usual...Brakes, Exhaust, Wiper Blades, Glass breakage, Lights, Signals, Seat belts, Not a bunch of leaks, Ball joints, Tie Rods, Steering, etc, etc, etc...Pretty simple..

Never underestimate the mean spiritedness of some folks. I had one guy, after telling him I would be fixing whatever he found, get all spiteful.
Told me my manual transmission car needed to have a placard indicating the shift pattern, or as the checklist said,a "shift indicator". Also insisted the door was "too hard to open". Wasnt bad, just harder than you would expect, still worked perfectly, you just had to apply say 10lbs of force upwards, not 7lbs.
When I asked him why that mattered, he said "If a police officer neds to open the door".

Can't you just go to an inspection station and ask to see the list? If not, Hubby works with a MD inspector. I can see if I can get a blank sheet for you.
Search "COMAR online", once there use "option 3" to access the Table of Contents, select "Title 11 - Department of Transportation", select "Subtitle 14 - Vehicle Inspections", then select the "Safety Standards for Passenger Cars, Taxicabs, Light Trucks, Vans, Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles and Type II School Vehicles"

Your own knowledge, thats it, really. Given the newness of your car, it shouldn't be an issue. We don't have an emissions requirement here in St Marys (They do in Calvert, so keep that i mind if your car is modded in a way that emissions might be an issue) so if everythings in working order, you should just fly right through.
I recommend Hewitts, they are straight up. I have not gotten any inspections done by Curtis Tire, but they recently worked a brake issue with me, and were straight up. I fabricated a new front to rear brake line, since you cant buy them, and had issues getting the bleed right. They did just what I asked, no attempt to yank more money out of me.
