A roadworthy certificate in Australia means your vehicle has passed a basic safety inspection at the time of testing.
It typically covers safety items like tyres, brakes, steering, suspension, lights, windscreen, seatbelts and structural rust.
It is not a full mechanical report or any promise that the gearbox, air-con or radio will behave next Tuesday.
Names and rules vary by state (RWC in Victoria, Safety Certificate in Queensland, eSafety check in NSW) and it is usually needed to sell, transfer rego or re-register a vehicle.
Always check your state authority or the conditions on Tradingpost listings for the fine print.
