PEI requires a vehicle to pass an annual safety inspection by a provincially licensed technician before registration is renewed. In Summerside, road construction can affect the route to an appointment, so use PEI’s route-planning resource to check for project impacts. Worn brakes, loose steering parts, damaged tires and failed lights are practical concerns to raise with the technician.
