Here are the new categories;
- Dangerous – If it poses a direct risk to road safety or the environment.
- Major – If it affects the safety or the environment.
- Minor – If there is no effect on safety, but it needs to be repaired as soon as possible.
- Advisory – If it could have an effect in future.
- Pass – If it meets all legal standards.
Other requirements are being introduced includes under-inflated tyres, contaminated brake fluid, brake pad warning lights and missing brake pads/discs.
