What happens if the vehicle does not meet safety requirements before the road test?

If the vehicle does not meet safety requirements before the road test, the road test will not be administered. This is because safety is a paramount concern for both the driver and the public. The purpose of the road test is to evaluate the applicant's driving skills in a safe environment. If the vehicle is not roadworthy, it poses a risk to the driver, the examiner, and other road users. Thus, the testing authority will ensure that all vehicles used for road tests are adequately maintained and comply with safety standards to promote a safe driving experience.

In this scenario, administering the road test would be irresponsible and could lead to accidents or further complications, which is why the test is canceled until the issues with the vehicle are rectified.
