I don't know though...a quick check of the most polluted cities in the USA list the top 5 cities for 3 different categories...
OZONE-
YEARLY PARTICLE POLLUTION-
SHORT-TERM PARTICLE POLLUTION-
The top 5 worst cities are all in CA for each category

I think there are mountains around those cities blocking in the pollution. That is why they have stricter laws. Plus everyone LA likes to drive everywhere. The stricter laws are a response to the high pollution numbers...it isn't causing the high pollution.
Less polution is good. I dont' have any problem with laws preventing you from making your vehicle more smog producing.
