A Roadworthy Certificate (RWC), also known as a Safety Certificate in some areas, is an official document issued by licensed vehicle testers to confirm that a vehicle meets minimum safety standards for use on public roads. It is often required when selling, transferring ownership, or re-registering a vehicle.
What Does a Roadworthy Certificate Cover?
The inspection typically includes checks on:
- Brakes and suspension
- Tyres and wheels
- Steering system
- Lights and electrical components
- Body and chassis condition
- Windows, windscreen, and wipers
- Seats and seatbelts
A Roadworthy Certificate ensures the vehicle is safe for drivers, passengers, and other road users. However, it does not assess the vehicle’s mechanical reliability or guarantee long-term performance.
