§ 13-110 — Certificate of safety

(a) Certificates of Safety shall be in contrasting colors, with a number on the face of the Certificate indicating the month of the next inspection period the vehicle is subject to inspection. Certificates for school buses shall also indicate the mileage at which the school bus shall be subject to inspection if it occurs before the next regular inspection period. The colors of Certificates of Safety shall be prescribed by the Department. (b) Certificates of Safety, which remain the property of the State of Illinois, will be provided to Official Testing Stations and official mobile safety testing companies by the Department at the fee of $1 each. Certificates of Safety which remain unused at the end of each inspection period will be redeemed for the same amount in a manner prescribed by the Department. (c) Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed as a suggestion or direction to any owner to require him to have any repairs made or any work done by any official testing station or official mobile safety testing company, but all tests must be made at an official testing station to secure the issuance of a certificate of safety, and no certificate of safety issued by any other than an official testing station or official mobile safety testing company shall be deemed a compliance with this Chapter.
