If you are engaged in the operation of a vehicle inspection station in Pennsylvania, you are required by the State of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to file a Pennsylvania Inspection Station Bond as a condition of licensure.
A surety bond protects the party requesting the bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial decisions, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to follow state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. The Pennsylvania Inspection Station Bond holds you accountable for your business decisions.
By possessing a Pennsylvania Inspection Station Bond, you are telling your Obligee that you can be trusted as a Principal and that you stand behind your business decisions.
