It should be noted that a well-respected model ("APEEP" - used by the National Academy of Sciences in a report they did for estimating automobile emission damages) clearly shows that VOCs are much more damaging in Southern California than NOx (I've already contacted the developer of the APEEP model, and was told in no uncertain terms that marginal NOx emissions in Southern California are less damaging than marginal VOC emissions because of the ozone-destruction properties of NOx):

Again, a policy that reduces one emission (NOx) at the expense of higher emissions of virtually all other regulated and unregulated emissions is a dubious one from a strictly air quality perspective.
