Since April 2024, technical inspection has become compulsory for cars without a license. These vehicles fail more often than others. A cart dating from 2017 passes its inspection. Maintenance is recommended every 5,000 km. Serious failures are regularly observed. In total, 30% of cars without a license fail the technical inspection, forcing their owners to return for repairs and a second inspection.
