Vehicle owners are reminded that all vehicle modifications require written approval from the Land Transport Authority to ensure safety and compliance with legal standards.

In a statement, CEO Irimaia Rokosawa stressed that vehicle compliance across Fiji must be adhered to, even though vehicle modifications can enhance a vehicle’s performance and appearance.

Rokosawa says all car owners and enthusiasts should comply with the legal requirements governing vehicle modifications, as this would ensure that modifications are conducted legally, safely and in line with local regulations.

He adds while vehicle modifications are a popular choice for many owners, it's crucial that such changes meet regulatory requirements.

The CEO is encouraging car owners to adhere to this process, to avoid penalties, fines or worse endangering the lives of others.
