DEKRA CERTIFCATE OF ROADWORTHY (COR)
A QUALITY ROADWORTHY CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE!
Notwithstanding that a roadworthy certificate is required when ownership of a vehicle changes, a quality roadworthy test is much more than that. Far too many South African lives are tragically lost each year; caused by motor vehicles that are not roadworthy. As an international organisation DEKRA is committed to safety, quality and the preservation of human life and a quality DEKRA roadworthy is the first step towards achieving this vision.
