As part of our test, a certified inspector will carefully do the following to ensure your vehicle meets West Virginia’s safety and emissions standards:

  • Check your safety glass
  • Check your vehicle’s sheet metal, bumpers, fenders and frame
  • Check your horn, rear view mirror, windshield wipers and plate mounting
  • Check your brake system – service and emergency brake, brake linings, brake pedal and all hoses
  • Check your front end and steering components
  • Check your exhaust system and fuel system
  • Check your tires and wheels
  • Check your lights, safety devices and seat belts
  • Affix a new inspection sticker to your vehicle windshield

 

Some vehicles do not require safety inspections. These include:

  • House trailers
  • Special vehicles
  • Trailers under 2,000 lbs.
  • Antique vehicles

You will also need to bring:

  • Proof of West Virginia car insurance

    • Vehicle title
    • Vehicle registration card
    • Notarized bill of sale
