What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source

Parliament adopted its position on a proposal to update EU rules on periodic roadworthiness tests and technical roadside inspections of vehicles.

The position updates rules for cars, vans, and commercial vehicles, and adds regular inspections for motor scooters above 50 cm³.

Parliament removed proposed mandatory annual inspections for older cars and light vans, and kept remote sensing optional for member states.

The position now goes to the Council for negotiation before the law can be finalised.
