Chris Bishop: Transport Minister on the Government looking into changing the Warrant of Fitness system
Update: 2025-10-29
Description
The Government's pushing ahead on updating land transport rules - kicking off public consultation today.
It's considering simplifying heavy vehicle permits, and adding safety features like Automatic Emergency Braking.
It'll also look at inspection rules for passenger vehicles like taxis and rentals, and lighter-vehicle Warrant of Fitness checks.
Transport Minister Chris Bishop says these changes will hopefully reduce costs for drivers, but also keep people safe on the road.
"In some places, you don't even have to have a regular inspection at all. The reality is, cars are safer than they've ever been, and technology has advanced."
