An E-safety inspection, also known as Pink Slip for a vehicle in NSW, indicates that it has been registered with the state’s transportation body, Roads and Maritime Services (RMS). All vehicles licensed in New South Wales must submit an annual safety inspection report. The car’s brand and model, registration number, registration expiration date, and other information will be listed on the slip. It will also include a unique barcode that could be used to verify the car’s history.

What exactly is an E-safety inspection?

In simple terms, an E-Safety Check is a method in which a trustworthy, approved inspector inspects your car to determine whether it is fit to drive.  The set of checks is performed in various vehicle sections, and the inspector will ultimately determine whether or not your vehicle is roadworthy (thus the name). As a side note, the information is dubbed an “E”-Safety Check because it is recorded in electronic devices and archived over the internet for later use.

Passing the inspection

Driving a vehicle without an E-Safety Check is one of the major offences if you live in Australia or plan to visit this great country and spend some time there. This is a risky action that puts the lives of your passengers, other cars, and pedestrians in your path in jeopardy, but you’re also risking your own life and, finally, your vehicle - this is something all car owners should consider a given.
If you’re looking for a trustworthy vehicle garage that can do an E-safety check, Sydney is probably the place with the most choices available in NSW.

What happens after you have passed the inspection?

As we already mentioned, a valid E-safety check result is now submitted electronically to the Roads and Maritime Service, where you can renew your car registration. The result of a passed E-Safety inspection is valid for six months. You must conduct another vehicle inspection after that time has passed.

What happens if your vehicle fails the inspection?

If your vehicle fails its vehicle inspection, you must have it fixed and re-tested before your registration may be renewed. All required repairs will be detailed in the inspection station fixes report. A new safety certificate from an authorised certifier may also be required. The RMS may refuse to register your car if it is not roadworthy, or you may be penalised. As a result, it’s critical to ensure that your vehicle is roadworthy before submitting it for a Pink Slip examination.

These are the things that can cause your car to fail the inspection station’s pink slips test:

  • * Interior lights are broken.

  • * Dash lights have failed.

  • * Driveline fluid is leaking.

  • * Worn tyres that need to be replaced.

  • * Seat belts that are malfunctioning.

  • * Headlights or brake lights are broken.

What can you do to prepare for the inspection?

As we previously stated, booking a check-up without at least some preparation can set you up for failure. If you fail an inspection, you have a certain amount of time to fix any flaws discovered and return to the same workshop for a free second inspection. But this can be avoided by spending just a few minutes in your driveway. Tyres are simple to inspect at home, especially if you own a 4x4 or SUV. Tyre tread is easier to notice on larger autos. Make sure that the tread depth is greater than the legal requirement of 1.5mm. The inspecting party will also search for signs of uneven wear, which could indicate a problem with wheel alignment or broken or worn suspension components. Wiper blades are a simple item to inspect, but we find a lot of cars with worn out, broken, or ineffective wiper blades that need to be replaced. The good news is that most auto parts stores will gladly assist you if you don’t know where to look for the correct alternatives.All lights must function adequately for a vehicle to pass an E-safety inspection. Fortunately, a blown bulb is usually a quick fix that doesn’t prevent a successful examination. As more vehicles adopt LED lighting, this will become less common. Most automobiles have simple bulb changes that need only a few tools.
