Introduction

This video provides a revision for the 2025 driving theory test, focusing on vehicle safety checks. It covers checking brake fluid, oil levels, and battery fluid, and also discusses measures to deter vehicle theft.

Key Takeaways

• Brake Fluid Check: Ensure brake fluid level is between minimum and maximum marks. Low fluid can lead to reduced braking efficiency or complete failure.
• Oil Level Check: Use the dipstick to check oil level; ensure it's between minimum and maximum marks. Overfilling can cause leaks.
• Battery Fluid Check: Verify that fluid covers the cell plates. Top up with distilled water if necessary.
• Theft Deterrents: Etch registration number on windows, install an immobilizer, remove valuables or lock them out of sight when leaving the vehicle unattended, engage the steering lock, lock the vehicle, and remove keys. Install a security-coded radio to prevent theft. Never leave vehicle documents inside. Consider joining a vehicle watch scheme.
• Police Checks: Police may stop vehicles driven between midnight and 5 am or by someone appearing under 25.
