Regular road safety inspections are crucial in keeping you, your loved ones, and everyone sharing the road safe. These inspections, often mandated by law, thoroughly examine a vehicle’s vital components, including brakes, tires, lights, and steering systems. Inspectors significantly reduce the risk of accidents caused by mechanical failures by identifying potential problems before they arise on the road.
How Often Should Your Vehicle Be Inspected?
While laws governing the frequency of automotive safety inspections vary from state to state, it’s generally recommended to have a safety assessment completed annually. To find out more about the specific requirements in your area, you can search online or get in touch with the Department of Motor Vehicles.
Car Safety Inspection Checklist
What’s involved in a car safety inspection? We’ve compiled the following checklist to give you a general overview of the inspection process. Here’s what to expect a technician to assess:
- Lights and reflectors: This includes headlights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, hazard lights, and any required reflectors. Inspectors will ensure they function correctly and meet visibility requirements.
- Brakes: This is a critical check to ensure your brake pads have enough life remaining, your hydraulic system functions without leaks, and your parking brake holds securely.
- Tires: Inspectors will assess tire pressure, tread depth (to meet legal minimums and ensure proper grip), and overall condition for signs of wear, damage, or dry rot.
- Steering and suspension: This involves checking for loose components, leaks, and any steering responsiveness or performance abnormalities.
- Fluid levels: The levels of engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid will be checked to ensure they’re within the recommended range.
- Windshield and wipers: Inspectors will verify your windshield has no cracks that impede visibility and that your wiper blades effectively clear rain and debris.
- Seatbelts and airbags: Functionality and proper operation of seatbelts and a visual check for any airbag warning lights will be performed.
- Body and frame: This may involve a brief inspection for any significant structural damage or rust that could compromise your vehicle’s safety.
