Prove they don't.
With the dangerous defects they do find ... ones I might add ... am glad they find and (hopefully) remove from road use. It would be a lottery on the road if NO checks were done. That same we all might be on at some stage.
Agreed it wont find and fix all possible problems ... but fixing some, will remove some ...
A few on here have "met" some motorists with no WoF or Rego. Muchwas usually involved. Even those WITH insurance.
With NO WoF scheme ... it wont get better.

And 1 other thing that has been mentioned, the mta/vtnz thing. I'm guessing that most people don't know how this came about. I'm not gonna explain it (I only got the abbreviated version) but it was the lesser of the evils.
You can put your money on the fact they thought long and hard about the potential damage the campaign they ran to keep the wof system as is (was) could do.
The average garage makes very little from a wof check (the owner of our business has considered dropping them in the past). True, there is money to be made from the repairs, but they need doing in any case don't they?

It seems some people have strongly suggested that, because people are stupid, they need a WOF to make them maintain their vehicles to a safeish standard. The counterpoint here is that some people will maintain only enough to pass each WOF, rather than fixing things as needed. Or they pass their WOF and drive an unsafe vehicle 'believing' it to be safe cos it passed it's WOF...pretty stupid huh? We all know the WOF is just a snapshot of a vehicles condition at the time it was tested.
