Vehicle inspection is important for proper maintenance of the vehicle as it contributes to various factors especially to ensure safe driving conditions. Different states have different laws but usually, a vehicle inspection is mandated before you renew vehicle registration or during the sale and transfer of a vehicle. At a vehicle station, the inspection is followed according to the standards issued by the government authorities. The standards usually are the basic guidelines about methods for inspecting to determine whether the vehicle is fit for use or not.
There are various benefits associated with inspection like timely identifications of potential vehicular problems. When you come to the station, you will be provided with a full checklist of approved items after the service is complete. At our station, the most important thing to our inspector is to ensure the vehicle is both well-maintained and equipped for highway use. So during the inspection, a series of checkpoints are made related to different standards to ensure that nothing goes untested and when we deliver your vehicle back it is fully ready to be deemed for highway operation. But if your vehicle fails to qualify for any of the tests it can be retested after necessary steps have been taken to redeem the situation.
The inspection usually goes through five stages that are:
- Verify and conduct visual data test
- Slide slip test and brake test
- Exhaust has test and headlight test
- Undercarriage test
- Control and monitoring, final checking, and inspection report
Convenient and flexible solutions are also offered to any problem that has been identified and ensure the proper condition of the commercial vehicle and the driver. Now as we discussed the regulatory standard about vehicle inspection, it is generally advised to have this inspection every 3-6 months for your safety. As a matter of common saying it’s said that you have an inspection of your vehicle every time you take it for an oil change.
