When must up-to-date inspection records be available for examination?

Up-to-date inspection records must be available for examination during normal business hours to ensure compliance with state regulations and to maintain transparency throughout the inspection process. This availability allows authorized personnel, such as state inspectors or auditors, to easily verify that proper inspection procedures have been followed and that vehicles have met safety and emissions standards. Keeping records accessible during business hours provides an ongoing opportunity for review and accountability, ensuring that all necessary documentation is in order whenever required.
