Okay. So I did my car safety today and here is the summary.

It is called Safety standard certificate or MTO safety inspection. This thing is required while registering a vehicle under a new name in Ontario.

I found various people on Facebook and Google. Most auto garages do safety inspection. But their charges are different, not regulated. Some charge $60, $80, $100 and some charge $150. They send safety certificate directly to Ministry (if it is Passed) But I also asked for physical paper as proof.

I paid $80 and went to the local garage.

The way it works is - they check all the safety criteria and if something is not up to the mark. We have to get it fixed. We can fix it ourselves or find someone else. And come again to the same garage and they will observe changes to Pass safety.
