What happens if a vehicle is deemed unsafe during the inspection?

When a vehicle is deemed unsafe during the inspection, it cannot be issued an inspection sticker until necessary repairs are made to address the safety issues identified. This means that the vehicle must meet all safety standards and regulations as defined by Texas law before it can legally operate on public roads. The inspection process is designed to ensure that vehicles on the road are safe for both the driver and other road users. If significant deficiencies are found in critical areas such as brakes, lights, tires, or other essential safety components, the inspector will not approve the vehicle until these issues are fully resolved. This process helps maintain overall road safety and encourages responsible vehicle maintenance.
