What if I’m not having any issues? Do I still need an inspection?
Yes. Regardless of whether your vehicle is experiencing issues or not, the province of Alberta still requires that all heavy-duty vehicles undergo an annual inspection. This is for a variety of reasons. Firstly, annual inspections provide you with the information you’ll need to perform adequate preventative maintenance. Secondly, not all issues are easily detected. Some can only be found during a thorough inspection undergone by a trained professional.
Does my heavy-duty commercial vehicle have to be inspected?
If you’re operating a commercial vehicle within the province of Alberta that has a gross vehicle weight that exceeds 11,794 kg, you are required to undergo an annual inspection. If your commercial vehicle originates from Alberta but operates within other provinces, you are required to undergo an annual inspection if your gross vehicle weight exceeds 4,500 kg.
