As a vehicle owner, one of the most crucial responsibilities is to ensure that your car is in safe and roadworthy condition. Not only is this vital for the safety of yourself and your passengers, but it's also a legal requirement.

This is where the importance of a Certificate of Roadworthiness comes in, and Drysdale Motors is proud to be your trusted VicRoads Authorised Inspection Station.

A VicRoads roadworthy inspection is a comprehensive check conducted to assess the condition of your vehicle's essential components that ensure safe driving. These include brakes, suspension, steering, tyres, wheels, seats and restraints, lights and electrical components, body and structure, and emissions.

Once the inspection is complete, Drysdale Motors will issue a Certificate of Roadworthiness, confirming that your vehicle is roadworthy and meets safety standards.

A Certificate of Roadworthiness is necessary in Victoria when transferring or re-registering a vehicle, or when you're selling a vehicle privately. In some cases, the authorities may also require a Certificate of Roadworthiness to renew a vehicle's registration, or if there has been a significant change to your vehicle's specifications.

While it's essential to obtain a Certificate of Roadworthiness for most vehicles, some are exempt from roadworthiness requirements. These include new vehicles under two years old, registered caravans, trailers weighing under 750 kg, and heavy vehicles over 4.5 tonnes. Additionally, if you're moving a registered vehicle to another state, you may not need a Certificate of Roadworthiness, depending on the destination state's rules and regulations.
