  1. Take the vehicle to a repair shop on a tow truck and pass the inspection again within less than two months.
  2. Take the vehicle to a repair shop to have it repaired and pass the inspection again within less than two months.
  3. Take the vehicle to a repair shop to have it repaired and pass the inspection again within less than one month.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Take the vehicle to a repair shop to have it repaired and pass the inspection again within less than two months.

With an unfavorable ITV result due to a serious defect, you may drive the vehicle to the repair shop and back to the ITV station. You have a maximum of 2 months from that inspection, not one month. Taking it on a tow truck or by another means of transport is mandatory when the result is negative.
