Let's take stock of an essential and yet little-known control. What is the technical control for? The periodic technical inspection is a check on the essential elements of the vehicle related to safety (braking, steering, visibility, lighting, signaling, etc.) and the environment (pollution, noise level, etc.). Its aim is to improve road safety by trying to reduce road accidents linked to the failure of certain parts of vehicles. During a check, the technician will check 124 check points on the vehicle, each of these points being subject to an obligation to correct in the event of a fault. In the event that defects subject to an obligation to repair are noted, repairs must be carried out and a check-up visit must be carried out within 2 months of the date of the initial visit. Where and when to carry out its technical control? Lasting 30 to 45 minutes, the technical control must be carried out in the 6 months preceding the fourth anniversary of the first registration of your vehicle. Thereafter, a technical control will be required every two years. It must be carried out in a center approved by the State. You can find the center closest to you at this address. Why it matters Technical inspection is a legal obligation. As such, if your technical control is not up to date or if you do not carry out your counter visit within the allotted time, you risk a fine (135 €) and even immobilization of your vehicle! Worse, if the technical control is no longer valid and the insured is responsible for an accident, his insurer may decide not to apply the cover. In this case, compensation for material damage and bodily injury are the responsibility of the insured. Technical control is therefore not to be taken lightly!
