Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Under the regulations on the technical inspection of vehicles (Royal Decree 920/2017), buses and coaches intended for passenger transport (categories M2 and M3) must undergo a very rigorous inspection frequency because of the safety demands of collective transport. These regulations establish that buses must pass the inspection annually during their first 5 years of life (so the first roadworthiness test (ITV) must be done within the first year from registration) and every six months (semiannually) once they exceed 5 years of age.
