During the mid 70's Saudi Arabia experienced a phenomenal growth rate of registered road vehicles, which is precedent in modern history. There was a rapid rise in the number of accidents and fatalities, apart from a rise in the pollution level because of exhaust emissions. In response to this phenomenon, apart from other safety measures, the concept of Motor Vehicles Periodic Inspection was instituted.
