Vehicle Safety Inspection

program is completely voluntary, and includes 23 different items ranging from the lighting system to suspension (see list that follows), and the sole purpose of the safety inspection is to advise the vehicle owner of problem areas, either real or potential. As an “advisory” type inspection, it is only used to call the owner’s attention to something which may have been overlooked. The inspection is not mandatory and has no effect on entering or taking part in NSRA events.

voluntary, the number of vehicles inspected grows every year. The NSRA Vehicle Safety Inspection is offered at each of the thirteen annual NSRA events, and at hundreds of independently produced activities all across the country. The program has become so popular, in fact, that each spring there is a growing number of “Safety Runs” where the main theme is only the Safety Inspection to make sure the vehicles are ready for another season of trouble free, safe fun.

owners recognize the benefits of having their vehicles safety inspected every year, there is one group of them that is even more keenly aware of the program’s value; the guys and gals that make up the all volunteer NSRA Safety Inspection Teams. There is one of these teams in every state, and in areas where the number of enthusiasts is more heavily concentrated there are additional teams so that as many of them as possible will have the opportunity to take advantage of the safety teams’ services and expertise.

providing a very worthwhile service for the National Street Rod Association, but what they are offering for free to the individual enthusiast is much more important…an extra set of eyes to notice a potentially life threatening condition before it becomes more of one. There are approximately 800 people involved in making the NSRA Vehicle Safety Inspection Program work, and they are do more than just talk about vehicle safety…they make it a reality!

street rodders accumulate year after year on their street rods, this is a very safe hobby. With the emphasis NSRA puts on safety combined with the care street rodders put into their vehicles when constructing and maintaining them and the services provided by the NSRA Safety Inspection Teams, there is every reason to believe it will remain a safe hobby well into the future.

take a few minutes to visit the Safety Inspection Area and learn a little more about this great program first hand…take the time to have your vehicle safety inspected…or simply note the number of NSRA Safety Inspection Verification Stickers on the windshields of the vehicles you look at. Vehicle safety is an important part of our hobby and most all enthusiasts recognize that fact and are doing something to prove it… they are having their vehicle safety inspected every year.
