RECOMMENDATIONS
CITA publishes Recommendations on various issues relevant to in-service vehicle roadworthiness testing.
Recommendations are guidelines for best practices developed under CITA Working groups and encourage standardization. Although English is the principal version, most Recommendations are also available in French, German and Spanish.
