These inspections were performed at 21 centres across the Emirate, including eight centres in Abu Dhabi and its suburbs, six centres in Al Ain and seven centres in Al Dhafra Region.
 
In 2016, the total number of light vehicles inspected by Adnoc Distribution’s VICs amounted to a total of 782,148: these included 624,729 vehicles that underwent a first time inspection and 157,419 vehicles re-inspected to ensure their compliance with technical requirements.
