Samenvatting
Technical inspection, as it is organized in the Ivory Coast with the help of an efficient concern, produces excellent results, the work being done without expense on the part of the government. Statistics about the evolution of vehicle defects shows that the condition of vehicles is improving, especially where it concerns steering, brakes, chassis, axles and lights. It is, however, impossible to know exactly in what proportion the influence of motor vehicle inspection has brought about a reduction of the accidents due to mechanical defects.
