A vehicle’s safety inspection entails a trained mechanic visually inspecting a vehicle with a focus on its protection and roadworthiness.
Any areas that are potentially hazardous or in need of replacement are listed and recorded in a certificate or study.
In certain states, safety checks are mandatory or mandated by regulation. Others opt for a mutual inspection for peace of mind, protection, or even to inspect the vehicle before the warranty expires.
In Australia, statutory safety inspection regulations vary by state and are known by a different names. Roadworthy, RWCs, safety certificates, e-safety checks, pink slips, and blue slips all serve the same purpose: to ensure everyone's safety by ensuring that any vehicle on the road meets a minimum level of roadworthiness.
