J&P Anton Motors is a VicRoads Licensed Vehicle Tester, licensed to offer roadworthy checks on light vehicles including passenger cars, vans, 4WDs, including LPG vehicles.

 

A roadworthy inspection is a check of the vehicle to ensure that key components have not worn or deteriorated and that the vehicle is safe for normal road use. It is generally required when a vehicle is sold or re-registered.

 

A roadworthy inspection mainly covers the major safety related items, including:

 

• Wheels and tyres

• Steering, suspension and braking systems

• Seats and seat belts

• Lamps and reflectors

• Windscreen, and windows including front windscreen wipers and washers

• The structure of the vehicle itself

• Other safety related items on the body, chassis or engine

 

The roadworthiness test is not a check of the mechanical reliability or general condition of the vehicle. If you require a comprehensive check on the overall condition and reliability of the vehicle then you should arrange for a separate report - ask us for details.

 

The certificate does not mean:

 

• That the vehicle is in top condition without any wear or deterioration

• Non-safety related accessories such as the air conditioner, rear window demister, electric windows and rear-window wipers are working

• That the items checked during the roadworthy inspection will continue to function after the inspection eg. a brake light can stop functioning at any time after the inspection
