Soon, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) will be stepping up its game when it comes to vehicle inspection. The new process is called the Motor Vehicle Inspection System (MVIS), and it replaces the old and outdated system for motor vehicle registration. In order to successfully implement this new system, the LTO will be accrediting several private motor vehicle inspection centers (PMVIC). About 138 PMVICs will be opened in the Philippines as a whole, and once the implementing rules and regulations for the aforementioned will be released these will begin operations https://philkotse.com/market-news/car-parts-for-inspection-new-lto-mvis-8183 Thought this thread should be in the funny stuff section as these people cant even print a tin reg plate since 2015,what chance is there of this ever happening!

They wont have a clue about any of this stuff,i can see alot of bribes otherwise the roads will be empty which would be nice. 80% junk out there now which wouldnt pass.
Wouldn't have a clue? Well, here's a story: Recently helped a relative move house here in Phils. She wanted a front-loader automatic washing machine installed. I read the manual and was reminded of the transit bolts (I knew about these from the past but had forgotten - they are there to hold the drum in place during transportation) and how essential it is to remove them before operating the machine - else the machine is totally wrecked on first switching on. It stated this on a piece of instructions taped to the top of the machine - but, knowing this place (!) I made doubly sure the installers knew by placing a card with, in red, "REMOVE TRANSIT BOLTS" also on top of the machine. The installers' first action was to remove the installation instructions and my warning sign and bin them . By luck, I was there when they were ready to slot the machine into the space - so I inquired about the transit bolts. Blank faces. Not a clue. Transit bolts still in place.
