@M_Kananura Vehicle modifications must only be carried out professionally by authorized and qualified/certified personnel to ensure maintenance of vehicle balance, Stability, structural integrity and overall mechanical performance of the modified vehicle.

[Eng. Kharim Kibuuka @EngKharim]

@M_Kananura **WHY Approval?*
Poorly done modifications to the vehicle grossly affect its overall safety and performance on the road depending on the type of modification carried out.

[Eng. Kharim Kibuuka @EngKharim]

@M_Kananura *Why need to Approve vehicle modifications:*

Legal: The Traffic and Road Safety Act Cap 347 (Section 125) requires one to seek approval from the Chief Licensing Officer or Vehicle manufacturer (depending the type of modification to be carried out) prior to modifying a vehicle

@dabirungi @MoWT_Uganda The success to be registered :

Immediate/Medium term success:
improved vehicle fleet circulating on our roads (Safer Vehicles)

Long term success:
improved road safety. Less road users getting involved in road crashes associated with vehicles in poor mechanical condition.

[Eng. Kharim Kibuuka @EngKharim]

@dabirungi @MoWT_Uganda What is the exact problem you will be solving with this inspection?

Getting rid of unroadworthy vehicles which are a danger to occupants/passengers and all road users generally.

…. and a host of other benefits!

The roll out of #DigitalRegistrationPlates by @GovUganda was postponed to October, so as to “sensitize” the public. Tomorrow I’ll host @abelmwesi and Mr. Karim from @MoWT_Uganda to brief us what’s in process.
