No, it will keep you from renewing registration.

you have to get an inspection for the county you live in. you can have the actual inspection itself done in any county, as long as they perform the same test as the county you live in.

the only way you could get around this is to register your car in that other county. but of course you'd need a mailing address there, and tell your insurance company that the car is garaged there and whatnot.

incorrect. there are other ways to get around it (unless laws have changed in the past few months)
students may get their cars inspected out of the county. lets say you lie in harris county (which has strict emmissions) and you go to school at A&M. you can get your car inspected in college station where it is cheaper and less strict.
I have never been asked for a student ID and I have inspected my car there at least 10 times.

there are other ways around this issue but I dont recall the details of them since they did not apply to me.
