What does a “safety inspection” typically include?

A safety inspection is primarily focused on evaluating critical vehicle components that directly affect the safe operation of the vehicle. This includes checks on lights to ensure visibility and safety while driving, brakes which are essential for stopping, tires which provide traction and stability, and steering components that affect the vehicle's handling. Each of these elements plays a crucial role in the overall safety of the vehicle and helps to prevent accidents. The thorough assessment of these parts ensures that they are functioning correctly and that the vehicle is safe to drive.

On the other hand, options that involve checking entertainment systems, assessing fuel efficiency, or performing interior cleaning and detailing do not directly impact the immediate safety of the vehicle's operation. These items, while they may contribute to the vehicle's comfort and convenience, are not included in a traditional safety inspection that is focused specifically on maintaining safe driving conditions.
