BACKGROUND
All vehicles in South Africa are required to be tested for roadworthiness on change of ownership. In addition trucks weighing more than 3500kg and taxis need to be tested annually. Since 1 November 2010, buses need to be tested every 6 months.
Private test stations have been performing this service on behalf of Government for the last 20 years. AVTS has strived to be a pioneer in roadworthy testing, in setting high standards and in refusing to compromise on roadworthiness.
