What Is a Roadworthy Certificate?
A Roadworthy Certificate (sometimes called a safety certificate) is a legal document that confirms your vehicle meets the minimum safety standards set by VicRoads. You’ll need an RWC in Victoria if you are:
- Selling or transferring ownership of a registered vehicle
- Re-registering a vehicle that’s been off the road
- Transferring registration from interstate to Victoria
It’s not a full mechanical inspection — instead, it’s focused on key safety components that affect whether your vehicle is safe to drive. For full details of our RWC process, visit our dedicated RWC service page.
- Brokes
- Tyres and Wheels
- Steering and Suspension
- Lights and Electricals
- Windscreens and Windows
- Seats and Seatbelts
- Vehicle Structure
Many Endeavour Hills vehicles spend time on the Monash Freeway or in stop-start traffic on Heatherton Road and Belgrave-Hallam Road. We regularly see:
- Tyres at or below 1.5 mm, sometimes with inner-edge wear
- Brake pads near minimum, rotors scored or warped, handbrake not holding on hills
- Worn bushes or ball joints, leaking shocks or struts
- Blown bulbs, especially the number-plate light
- Windscreen chips in the A-zone, torn or hardened wiper blades
- Seatbelts that are frayed or slow to retract
- Minor oil or coolant leaks, loose battery clamps, loose exhaust mounts
- Non-compliant tint or ride height after modifications
A quick check of tyres, bulbs and wipers before you arrive prevents most re-inspections.
- Tyres below legal tread (1.5 mm) or uneven/old/hard tyres
- Brake pads below spec, warped or undersize rotors, handbrake not holding
- Worn suspension bushes, leaking struts, excessive steering play
- Inoperative or dim lights, blown brake lights, number-plate light out
- Windscreen chips/cracks in the driver’s critical view, torn wiper blades
- Seatbelts frayed, non-retracting, or mounts loose
- Structural rust, fluid leaks, insecure battery, loose exhaust mounts
- Non-compliant mods (e.g., illegal tint, unsafe ride height, exposed edges)
If you’re unsure, bring it in—we’ll give you practical options to make it compliant.
What Happens If My Car Fails?
It’s common for some vehicles to require small repairs before they pass a roadworthy inspection. If your car doesn’t meet the requirements on the first check, we’ll give you a detailed written report explaining exactly what needs attention.
You then have 14 days to carry out the repairs and return for a re-inspection. In many cases, our workshop can complete the necessary repairs on the spot, saving you the trouble of visiting multiple mechanics.
How Long Does It Take and How Much Does It Cost?
Most Roadworthy Certificate inspections take 45–60 minutes, depending on your vehicle’s condition. The cost of an RWC can vary depending on the make, model, and overall state of your car.
At PAT Narre Warren, we keep our pricing fair and competitive, with no hidden surprises. You’ll always know what the inspection involves and what the costs are before we begin. For the most accurate information, we recommend giving us a call or booking through our RWC service page.
