Just when are all states going to bring in compulsory 6 or at the most 12 monthly vehicle inspections.
The large number of rust buckets and cars in poor condition in South Australia alone indicates to me one reason why there are so many crashes,injuries and fatalities on the roads !

I agree. But when you purchase a new car you don't need an inspection for 5 years. I've seen heaps of "new" cars that don't have working brake lights, indicators etc and my last car scrubbed out the tyres in the first 6 months. In addition to the need to have vehicles checked regularly is that so many people constantly drive unregistered and uninsured vehicles. I think the use by the police of cameras that check for these unregistered vehicles etc is a good move to help keep the roads safe for everyone.
