Is your cars Registration due for the
year? Call us for a Pink Slip Today
Driving an unregistered vehicle is a serious offence that can have
far-reaching and catastrophic consequences. It’s a scary thought when you
think about what could happen if your vehicle is unregistered.
Making sure cars are roadworthy is a big part of the registration system.
It’s also about protecting people – every vehicle must be registered to be
covered by compulsory third party insurance.
This insurance makes sure that
everyone is covered for personal injury if someone is hurt in a crash.
Car Pre-purchase
Inspections
This is a fully comprehensive inspection report which includes a complete
check of the vehicle. The inspection involves a thorough jacked up
examination of all mechanical components and also the bodywork, paintwork
and under structure, for evidence of any damage or unsatisfactory repair
work.
The interior and electrical components are checked and the vehicle’s
electronic control unit checked for any fault codes followed by a road test.
If you are buying a second hand car and don't want to be stuck with a lemon
then why not give us a call today!
Here’s the rundown on what the different roadworthiness inspections are,
and how to make sure you’re covered at all times
Pink slip Inspections
This is a safety inspection report that proves your car is roadworthy.
All vehicles more than three years old require a safety inspection as a
condition of registration renewal.
Your registration renewal notice will
advise you if your vehicle needs an inspection. To get the pink slip, you
need to take your vehicle to an Authorised Inspection Station (AIS).
E-Safety Check
This is a pink slip that has been sent to the RTA electronically. This
allows you to renew your Rego online or by phone. You must visit an e-Safety
Check Inspection Station to get your e-Safety Check.
White Slip
An inspection report rejection slip. It details the repairs required
before a vehicle can be registered. Once the repairs are carried out and you
have the vehicle re-inspected, the vehicle will receive a pink or blue slip.
Driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle attracts on-the-spot fines
and license demerit points. If the matter goes to court, the court can
impose heavy fines for driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle.
