- A.
Annual inspection.
- B.
Special inspection.
- C.
Limited technical inspection.
- D.
Preventative maintenance and inspection.
Correct Answer
C. Limited technical inspection.Explanation
A limited technical inspection is performed to determine the condition of a vehicle or piece of equipment. This type of inspection focuses on specific components or systems of the vehicle or equipment, rather than a comprehensive evaluation. It is typically conducted to ensure that the specific components or systems are functioning properly and meet the required standards. Unlike an annual inspection, which covers all aspects of the vehicle or equipment, a limited technical inspection is more targeted and may be performed more frequently to address specific concerns or issues. Preventative maintenance and inspection, on the other hand, refers to routine maintenance and inspection activities aimed at preventing breakdowns and ensuring optimal performance. Special inspection is a vague term and does not provide a clear explanation for determining the condition of a vehicle or equipment.Rate this question:
