If you're planning to sell, transfer ownership, or re-register your vehicle in Victoria, obtaining a Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) is a legal requirement. At HMF Motors in Cranbourne, we offer comprehensive RWC inspections to ensure your vehicle meets all safety standards set by VicRoads.
What Is a Roadworthy Certificate?
A Roadworthy Certificate is an official document confirming that your vehicle complies with the minimum safety standards for operation on Victorian roads. It's essential for:
-
Selling a Vehicle: Required before transferring ownership.
-
Re-registering an Unregistered Vehicle: Necessary for vehicles that have been unregistered.
-
Clearing a Defect Notice: Issued by authorities if your vehicle has been deemed unroadworthy.
What Does the Inspection Cover?
Our licensed vehicle testers perform a thorough assessment of your vehicle, focusing on key safety components:
-
Tyres and Wheels: Ensuring adequate tread depth and no damage.
-
Brakes: Checking for proper function and wear.
-
Suspension and Steering: Verifying stability and control.
-
Lights and Reflectors: Confirming all are operational and visible.
-
Windscreen and Windows: Inspecting for cracks and proper wiper function.
-
Seats and Seat Belts: Ensuring secure attachment and condition.
-
Vehicle Structure: Looking for signs of rust or damage.
Please note, the inspection does not cover the mechanical reliability or general condition of the vehicle. For a comprehensive assessment, consider a Vehicle Condition Report.
Validity of the Certificate
Once issued, a Roadworthy Certificate is valid for 30 days. If the vehicle is not sold, transferred, or registered within this period, a new inspection may be required.
