Now i was born in the worlds number 1 gungster thug country. But they do have some laws that work. and i have nothing against laws that work and make sense. if police stop you and your cars tyres are below 1,6mm thread your car wont move from the spot it was stopped. a towtruck will come at your expense a fine and you get to pass a appointment for a new wof. wof is 7 years for new cars 3 years till it is 10 years old and over 10 years old every 2 years wof. And real heaps that have 100 welding patches may only get 1 year. taxi also 1 year. wof works like this you bring the car in a wofable state if they find 3 faults you get a recheck. if they find 4 faults test is abandoned and you get to pay for a whole new wof as you are supposed to bring it in a wofable state for inspection. This is why swiss cars are wanted commodity in germany who have more lax law for wof. emission testing is a whole other can of worms.

Not surprised MTA in there putting in their two cents. Wonder what they are after for themselves?
A tiny fraction of all road incidents are down to vehicle faults.

Often find dodgy vehicles and dodgy drivers go hand in hand. however- Kiwi owners being what they are- accident numbers would definitely go up if WoF regime ended. too many rely on it for finding problems.

Unfortunately, these days many people treat their car between WOF's like they would their toaster. As long as it toasts bread, and pops up, whats the issue? Doesn't matter that an element doesn't toast one side properly, or the pop up bit sticks sometimes, it's only when it stops working altogether that it gets any attention.
