​
Tyres
-
Check for worn or damaged tyres. Tyres with less than 1.5mm tread depth are illegal and must be replaced​​
-
Check the vehicle's tyre placard as tyres must have the appropriate speed and load rating for the vehicle application.
Brakes
-
Brake discs or drums that are too thin won’t withstand the heat generated by heavy braking.
-
Low fluid levels can indicate a leak in the brake system. This is also an indication that the disc pads may be worn out.
-
Worn-out brake pads and shoes reduce braking effectiveness and cause uneven braking.
Panel Damage
-
Sharp edges on bodywork can seriously injure pedestrians and cyclists.
Seat Belts
-
Frayed, worn or inoperative seat-belts will not protect the driver and passenger in a crash.
Lights
-
Good brake and tail lights prevent rear end collisions.
-
Corroded reflectors, cracked lenses or incorrectly aimed headlights reduce lighting effectiveness and reduce safety
-
All globes, lenses and controls must work effectively. Faded lenses reduce effectiveness.
Windscreen and Windows
-
A cracked or chipped windscreen can impair visibility. The wind screen contributes to the car’s structural strength, which may be reduced if the screen is cracked.
-
Wipers and washers should be able to prevent dirt and moisture from obscuring visibility through the windscreen
-
Working window winders enhance vehicle safety.
-
Windows with tint that is peeling, bubbled or too dark can impair visibility
Suspension and Suspension Bushes
-
Worn shock absorbers reduce vehicle control and cause excessive tyre wear.
-
Lowering suspension can cause ground clearance and handling problems. Cutting springs alters their spring rate (stiffness) and may adversely affect handling.
-
Rubber brushes at the control arm pivots maintain suspension alignment
