The new safety check process also involves the taking of pictures of your vehicle - which serves to validate some of the reasons why the safety check can now be denied on your old junk vehicle. Rust holes are not allowed at all. Tires sticking out from the wheel wells, bald tires, cracked or broken windows.... all not allowed and the pictures are evidence. When the tech turns the key to the ON position, the various check lights for engine, airbag, etc., must come on and then go out when the vehicle is started. Th techs no longer want to risk getting caught and losing their license.
