In this small country we have a "Warrant of Fitnss". Any car not displaying a warrant on the windscreen, is given a ticket. Parking wardens as well as police can issue these. Older cars must be inspected every six months and a new warrant issued. Newer cars every twelve months. Brakes must check out on a test machine and a carefull visual inspection covers hoses etc. All items relative to safety are covered.
