Which of the following is covered by the vehicle inspection program in Alberta?

• A. All of The Above
• B. Buses must be inspected more frequently than trucks
• C. Municipal transit buses are exempt from inspection if only they carry fewer than 11 passengers
• D. Truck-tractors with a registered gross vehicle weight of more than 4,500kg must be expected every 12 months

Answer: (A)

The Vehicle Inspection Program in Alberta uses different inspection schedules based on vehicle type and how many people the vehicle carries, to keep road users safe. For heavy truck-tractors with a registered gross vehicle weight over 4,500 kg, inspections are required every year, reflecting the higher safety risk of these large commercial vehicles. Buses carry passengers, so they are subject to more frequent inspections than trucks, ensuring passenger safety is continuously addressed. There’s also a specific exemption for municipal transit buses that carry fewer than 11 passengers, meaning those smaller passenger vehicles aren’t required to be inspected under the VIP. When you put all that together, it covers all the statements, so the correct choice is that all of the above are included in Alberta’s vehicle inspection program.
