So where do the responsibilities lie?
- The Seller of the vehicle,
Responsible for ensuring the vehicle is presented to the inspection station in a condition that meets the Queensland Government Department of Transport and Main Roads standards.
- The Approved Inspection Station,
Responsible for accurately and honestly carrying out the inspection as required by the Queensland Government Department of Transport and Main Roads Safety inspection rules.
- The Queensland Government Department of Transport and Main Roads,
Setting the rules and guidelines used to asses if the vehicle meets the minimum safety standard.
- The purchaser,
Who when transferring the registration must provide Queensland Government Department of Transport and Main Roads proof that the vehicle has undergone and passed a Safety inspection.
As you can see the importance is the vehicles safety, not on the sale of the vehicle.
