vehicle inspections
Mandatory car examinations
Vehicle inspections are official examinations of automobiles, trucks, or other vehicles to verify they meet safety or emissions standards.
Many jurisdictions require periodic inspections—annual or biennial—before registration renewal: My car failed its vehicle inspection because of a cracked windshield.
Inspections may also occur at border crossings, checkpoints, or when transferring ownership.
