Can I drive my car if it fails the inspection?
You can usually still drive the vehicle unless the identified issue poses a serious safety risk. However, it's best to repair the fault as soon as possible. Driving with significant safety defects may be illegal and could result in penalties or void your insurance coverage.
Is a roadworthy certificate the same as a vehicle inspection report?
No, a roadworthy certificate focuses strictly on safety compliance, while a vehicle inspection report is more comprehensive. The latter may include mechanical condition, cosmetic issues, and maintenance history. Roadworthy certificates are typically required for legal purposes, whereas full inspections are often done before buying a used car.
How long does a roadworthy inspection take?
A typical roadworthy inspection takes between 45 minutes and 90 minutes, depending on the vehicle and its condition. If issues are found, further time may be needed to carry out repairs. Booking in advance can help reduce waiting times and streamline the process.
