Vehicle roadworthiness test and safety inspection
The vehicle sends its own condition data every minute; the law still wants the certificate and the walkaround. Convert the servicing in between, keep the statutory items on the calendar.
What does a vehicle roadworthiness test and safety inspection involve?
Vehicle roadworthiness test and safety inspection checks: brake efficiency, tyre pressure and tread, fault codes, tachograph calibration date, daily defect report. Observed by telematics and tyre pressure monitoring for the trend; test station for the roadworthiness test. Annual roadworthiness testing is set by law (MOT in the UK, state registration inspections in Australia, DOT annual inspection in the US); operator licence conditions require a documented daily walkaround; tachograph calibration is every two years under EU regulation 165/2014.
- Condition that replaces the interval
- Partly. Telematics report brake performance, tyre pressure and fault codes continuously; the roadworthiness test and the driver's daily walkaround stay because the law requires them.
- Reading that proves it
- Brake efficiency, tyre pressure and tread, fault codes, tachograph calibration date, daily defect report
- Why the interval stays
- Annual roadworthiness testing is set by law (MOT in the UK, state registration inspections in Australia, DOT annual inspection in the US); operator licence conditions require a documented daily walkaround; tachograph calibration is every two years under EU regulation 165/2014.
- Evidence an auditor accepts
- Test certificate per vehicle, daily walkaround defect reports and the tachograph calibration certificate
- First move
- Put the test due date and tachograph calibration date on each vehicle record; an expired certificate is an off-road vehicle.
