ROAD TEST – ALL VEHICLES 98  \nPage 2  \n1. IDENTIFICATION  \nOBJECTIVE: To verify the vehicle’s identity.  \nGENERAL  \n• Identification must be obtained from the vehicle and not from registration documents orthe vehicle owner’s manual. All sections of the Certificate must be completed and legible. (See Note 5)  \nDATE OF MANUFACTURE  \n• Must be entered (month and year) on the Certificate as shown on the compliance plate or vehicle identification plate. (See Note 1)  \nENGINE NUMBER  \n• Must not be altered and is to be recorded on the Certificate. (See Note 2)  \nVIN/CHASSIS NUMBER  \n• Must not be altered and is to be recorded on the Certificate. (See Note 2)  \nCOMPLIANCE PLATE  \n• Must be fitted to vehicles manufactured after 1 January 1972 (1 July 1975 for motorcycles) . (See Note 3)  \nTRAILER PLATE  \n• All trailers manufactured on or after 1 July 1988 must display a \"trailer plate\" fixed in a prominent external position. The trailer plate must show:  \n¾ the manufacturer’s name and trailer model number;  \n¾ vehicle identification number (VIN);  \n¾ date of manufacture and aggregate trailer mass. (See Note 4) REGISTRATION PLATES (WHEN FITTED)  \n• Must be in good condition, legible and free from visual obstruction.  \nPage 3  \nODOMETER  \n• Reading must be entered on the Certificate.  \nNOTES:  \n(1) Some vehicles may have a compliance (manufacture) date which may differ to\"Built Date\" shown on the build date plate. Pre January 1972 vehicles may not have a compliance plate.  \n(2) If the examiner considers that the Chassis Number, Compliance Plate or Body Number has been tampered with, a \"Fail\" is to be recorded for identification.  \nIf an engine or chassis number is not stamped, the vehicle is to be rejected and the owner must be advised to contact the nearest Queensland Transport office to obtain a new number.  \n(3) Compliance plates may take the form of a private import (yellow) or low volume (green) compliance plate issued by the Federal Office of Road Safety.  \nAlternatively, a permit which exempts the vehicle from the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Regulation may be issued, if applicable, or a modification plate displaying Code LO1 must be fitted.  \nRefer to AIS Information Sheet 5 relating to “Missing Compliance Plates” for further details.  \n(4) This is required even if a separate VIN plate is attached.  \n(5) Vehicle definitions are provided in AIS Information Sheet 14.  \nPage 4  \n2. MODIFICATIONS  \nOBJECTIVE: To check that any modifications have been carried out in an approved manner.  \nMODIFICATIONS NOT REQUIRING AUTHORISATION  \n• Modifications referred to in the brochure \"All About Modifications to Motor Vehicles\" that have been satisfactorily performed and will not make the vehicle defective, are permitted. (See Note 1)  \nMODIFICATIONS REQUIRING AUTHORISATION  \n• Modifications must have been performed in accordance with the Light/Heavy Commercial Vehicle Code of Practice or as otherwise approved by Queensland Transport.
