Utilizing a synthetic controls approach, we conclude that ending requirements [for safety inspections] did not result in a significant increase in the frequency or intensity of accidents due to car failure, implying that the consumer and government expenditures used for inspections could be reallocated to other areas of travel safety.
We examined the effectiveness of state automobile safety inspections and present new evidence from a panel of the 50 states for the years 1981-1993. Our approach incorporated several innovations over previous studies of safety inspections; most significantly, we estimated a fixed-effects model that incorporated state-specific shifts in casualty rates. We found no evidence that inspections significantly reduce fatality or injury rates. Our study also provides evidence on the effects of speed limits, seat belts, and Peltzman's offsetting behaviour hypothesis.

Using the New Zealand data... logistic regression analysis [showed considerable] statistical uncertainty... The Victorian analysis of potential periodic roadworthiness certification safety benefits was not entirely conclusive [;] likely to be much less than required to make an annual periodic scheme cost effective
