Prior to registering their vehicles, owners must ensure each one passes a Maryland state safety inspection. Wiygul Automotive Clinics in Waldorf, MD, and other locations offer a complete examination that allows you to register your automobile, trailer, or motorcycle and start driving on your summer vacation.
Each inspection takes about 1.5 hours per vehicle. After completing the state safety inspection, our automotive specialists print out a report for each customer. It provides details on every system and part pass or provide the reason for each failure. Each Waldorf, MD vehicle costs $125 per inspection.
