Sheik Gazzuzz, this is very simple na. Na to just place a glass of water - filled to the brim on the engine and then start the car, if the water pours on the engine, then that engine isn't in a good condition.

Let's just say 90% of Naija cars go fail the test. grin

So you stop a vehicle and start checking all these things? That is how they make things difficult and test ones patience just to stimulate giving bribe and fines. Wickedness

[/color]Is this test going to be conducted by Me, or Them,?

Is this Test going to be done on a random freeway, or stop and check,

Cause im not letting a nig*a get access to my car to check, "brake test" or anything that will get him/her access into my car,

And if i was asked to do the brake test,
That s a drive away chance for me,

Thanks,
Yours Sincerely

Those useless VIO officers stopped my car some weeks back at Ogoja and they requested for my car papers and driver's licence. I told them that it is not part of their duty. I argued with them over it. Now I know better. Let me see them again request for my car papers. . .idiots.
