Keeping your vehicle in a roadworthy condition is a key part of being a responsible car owner. Whether you’re preparing to sell your vehicle, transferring ownership, or re-registering, a valid Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) is a legal requirement in Victoria. If you’re located in Skye or the surrounding suburbs, Carr Care Automotive offers fast, reliable, and fully licensed RWC inspections to help ensure your vehicle is safe, compliant, and ready for the road.
Why an RWC is Important?
An RWC confirms that your car meets the minimum safety standards as required by VicRoads. It ensures that all major components of your vehicle, such as the brakes, tyres, lights, and suspension, are in safe working order. This not only protects you as the driver but also safeguards passengers, pedestrians, and other road users.
When buying or selling a used car, a roadworthy certificate in Skye is usually mandatory to complete the transaction. Similarly, if you are re-registering a vehicle that has been off the road, an inspection is required before your registration is approved. Even if you’re not planning a sale or transfer, booking a roadworthy inspection offers peace of mind and helps you stay ahead of unexpected issues.
What We Check During a Roadworthy Inspection?
Our skilled and authorised vehicle testers at Carr Care Automotive conduct thorough inspections in line with VicRoads regulations. We inspect a wide range of components, including:
- Tyres and wheels – condition, pressure, and tread depth
- Brakes – pads, discs, handbrake, and stopping power
- Suspension and steering systems – stability and alignment
- Lights and indicators – functionality and visibility
- Windows, wipers, and mirrors – clarity and safety
- Vehicle structure – rust, damage, and body integrity
- Seats and seatbelts – proper operation and condition
- Exhaust system – leaks and emissions compliance
- Horn and other safety features
Should your vehicle fail to meet the standard, we’ll provide a full report outlining the necessary repairs. Our team can also handle all required fixes onsite before re-testing, saving you time and stress.
