The main objective of the research presented in this article was to analyze composition exhaust gases from passenger cars undergoing periodic inspections and determine influence vehicle age, mileage applicable EURO emission standard on level emissions individual components thus environment. carried out at District Vehicle Inspection Station Nowy Sącz, using methods for analyzing smoke opacity. results obtained make it possible assess whether diagnostics can form basis implementation a sustainable road transport policy. study showed that older vehicles emit higher concentrations carbon monoxide (CO) hydrocarbons (HC), diesel manufactured before 2010 are characterized by increased A reliable analysis performance enables more effective measures be taken reduce improve air quality through regulation, introduction clean traffic zones raising environmental awareness among drivers. This is especially important regions with specific geographical conditions, such as Sącz district, where terrain—Nowy located basin surrounded mountain ranges—favors accumulation pollutants hinders natural circulation, leading long-term persistence smog.
