La Flandre poursuit son projet visant \u00e0 supprimer les contr\u00f4les techniques obligatoires lors de la vente de voitures d'occasion, alors m\u00eame que les chiffres montrent que pr\u00e8s d'un v\u00e9hicule sur cinq contr\u00f4l\u00e9 l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re pr\u00e9sentait des d\u00e9fauts graves.<\/p>\n

Une p\u00e9tition soutenue par 15 752 signatures n'a pas permis d'obtenir un revirement imm\u00e9diat, tandis que de nouveaux documents soul\u00e8vent des questions quant \u00e0 savoir si l'impact environnemental de la r\u00e9forme avait \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9valu\u00e9 au pr\u00e9alable.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 compter du 1er janvier 2027, les voitures vendues en Flandre ne devront plus faire l'objet d'un contr\u00f4le technique distinct avant tout changement de propri\u00e9taire. Les v\u00e9hicules import\u00e9s resteront soumis \u00e0 des contr\u00f4les obligatoires, tandis que les vendeurs et les acheteurs pourront toujours opter pour des contr\u00f4les volontaires.<\/p>\n

Cette mesure fait suite \u00e0 une r\u00e9forme plus large mise en place en septembre, qui porte \u00e0 deux ans la fr\u00e9quence des contr\u00f4les techniques pour les voitures particuli\u00e8res, quels que soient leur \u00e2ge ou leur kilom\u00e9trage.<\/p>\n

La ministre flamande de la Mobilit\u00e9, Annick De Ridder, affirme que ces changements permettront de simplifier les proc\u00e9dures, de r\u00e9duire les d\u00e9lais d\u2019attente et de rapprocher la Flandre des exigences minimales europ\u00e9ennes. Le 15 octobre, Mme De Ridder a exclu toute modification au Parlement flamand et a rejet\u00e9 l\u2019id\u00e9e d\u2019une \u00e9valuation conjointe de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 avec d\u2019autres r\u00e9gions belges, la qualifiant de \u2018 ref\u00e9d\u00e9ralisation rampante \u2019.<\/p>\n

Une voiture sur cinq pr\u00e9sente un d\u00e9faut<\/h4>\n

Toutefois, les chiffres publi\u00e9s par la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration d'inspection GOCA Vlaanderen soul\u00e8vent des questions quant \u00e0 leurs cons\u00e9quences.<\/p>\n

Sur les 482 809 contr\u00f4les techniques de v\u00e9hicules d'occasion effectu\u00e9s en 2025, pas moins de 93 029 ont abouti \u00e0 un refus en raison d'un d\u00e9faut grave ou dangereux. Parmi ceux-ci, on comptait 83 405 v\u00e9hicules pr\u00e9sentant des d\u00e9fauts majeurs et 9 624 pr\u00e9sentant des d\u00e9fauts dangereux, concernant souvent les freins, les pneus, la suspension ou l'\u00e9clairage.<\/p>\n

Cela signifie que 19,31 TP3T de v\u00e9hicules d'occasion contr\u00f4l\u00e9s ont \u00e9t\u00e9 jug\u00e9s non conformes pour des motifs techniques graves. Ces chiffres ne permettent pas de d\u00e9terminer combien d'accidents ont \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9vit\u00e9s gr\u00e2ce aux contr\u00f4les techniques obligatoires.<\/p>\n

Ils montrent n\u00e9anmoins que le syst\u00e8me actuel identifie un nombre important de v\u00e9hicules n\u00e9cessitant une intervention avant de pouvoir passer le contr\u00f4le technique.<\/p>\n

Cette r\u00e9forme soul\u00e8ve \u00e9galement des inqui\u00e9tudes en mati\u00e8re de protection des consommateurs, notamment pour les acheteurs de v\u00e9hicules anciens et bon march\u00e9 qui ne disposent peut-\u00eatre pas des connaissances ou des moyens n\u00e9cessaires pour d\u00e9tecter eux-m\u00eames d'\u00e9ventuels probl\u00e8mes m\u00e9caniques cach\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

15 752 signatures, mais pas de revirement<\/h4>\n

L'audition organis\u00e9e le 1er octobre par le Parlement flamand a port\u00e9 sur une p\u00e9tition sign\u00e9e par 15 752 personnes r\u00e9clamant une \u00e9valuation ind\u00e9pendante de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 dans le cadre de la r\u00e9forme du contr\u00f4le technique des v\u00e9hicules \/ Parlement flamand<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Deux militants pour la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 routi\u00e8re, Bart Rassaerts, ancien agent du contr\u00f4le technique, et Nico Godin, ont contest\u00e9 cette r\u00e9forme au moyen d'une p\u00e9tition soutenue par 15 752 signatures.<\/p>\n

Les p\u00e9titionnaires ont fait part de leurs objections lors d'une audition de la commission de la mobilit\u00e9 du Parlement flamand, le 1er octobre. Une semaine plus tard, le 8 octobre, la commission a d\u00e9battu de ses conclusions.<\/p>\n

Selon les p\u00e9titionnaires, la commission a reconnu le bien-fond\u00e9 de leurs arguments, mais a rappel\u00e9 le refus ant\u00e9rieur du ministre d'apporter des changements imm\u00e9diats, laissant les questions de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 \u00e0 l'appr\u00e9ciation des prochains contr\u00f4les et \u00e9valuations.<\/p>\n

Les militants r\u00e9clament une \u00e9valuation ind\u00e9pendante avant la suppression du contr\u00f4le technique obligatoire des v\u00e9hicules d'occasion. Leurs inqui\u00e9tudes sont renforc\u00e9es par un avis d\u00e9favorable rendu pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment par l'Inspection flamande des finances.<\/p>\n

Ils ont remis en cause les \u00e9l\u00e9ments justifiant cette r\u00e9forme. Le gouvernement flamand a r\u00e9pondu que les normes europ\u00e9ennes, les progr\u00e8s technologiques dans le domaine automobile et le principe de proportionnalit\u00e9 justifiaient un assouplissement des r\u00e8gles en vigueur.<\/p>\n

Les autorit\u00e9s charg\u00e9es de l'environnement n'ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 consult\u00e9es<\/h4>\n

Une s\u00e9rie de documents distincts soul\u00e8ve des questions concernant la surveillance des \u00e9missions. Dans une r\u00e9ponse \u00e9crite dat\u00e9e du 26 ao\u00fbt, l'Agence flamande pour l'environnement (VMM) a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que le d\u00e9partement charg\u00e9 de la politique environnementale n'avait pas particip\u00e9 \u00e0 la pr\u00e9paration ni \u00e0 la mise en \u0153uvre de la r\u00e9forme et qu'il ne disposait d'aucune \u00e9tude ni analyse politique \u00e0 ce sujet.<\/p>\n

Le cabinet de la ministre de l'Environnement, Jo Brouns, a ensuite confirm\u00e9, le 9 octobre, qu'il ne disposait d'aucun document relevant des cinq cat\u00e9gories demand\u00e9es, \u00e0 savoir l'impact environnemental, la fr\u00e9quence des contr\u00f4les d'\u00e9missions et les alternatives possibles.<\/p>\n

Ces r\u00e9ponses ne permettent pas d'affirmer qu'il n'existe aucune \u00e9valuation environnementale ailleurs au sein de l'administration flamande. Elles ne prouvent pas non plus que la r\u00e9forme entra\u00eenera une augmentation de la pollution.<\/p>\n

Ils laissent toutefois sans r\u00e9ponse la question de savoir comment ont \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9valu\u00e9es les cons\u00e9quences d'une r\u00e9duction du nombre d'inspections obligatoires visant \u00e0 d\u00e9tecter les syst\u00e8mes de contr\u00f4le des \u00e9missions d\u00e9fectueux ou trafiqu\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Un test de mesure du nombre de particules d'\u00e9chappement sur une voiture diesel. La r\u00e9duction du nombre de contr\u00f4les obligatoires pourrait avoir pour cons\u00e9quence que des filtres \u00e0 particules d\u00e9fectueux ou trafiqu\u00e9s ne soient pas d\u00e9tect\u00e9s pendant plus longtemps \/ GOCA Vlaanderen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Les filtres \u00e0 particules diesel en sont un bon exemple. Depuis juillet 2022, la Belgique recourt \u00e0 des tests de comptage de particules lors des contr\u00f4les techniques afin de d\u00e9tecter les filtres d\u00e9fectueux ou retir\u00e9s ill\u00e9galement.<\/p>\n

L'Agence flamande pour l'environnement (VMM) estime que seuls 10% de v\u00e9hicules probl\u00e9matiques sont \u00e0 l'origine de 80% des \u00e9missions de particules provenant des v\u00e9hicules tenus d'\u00eatre \u00e9quip\u00e9s de tels filtres.<\/p>\n

Les contr\u00f4les ne sont pas supprim\u00e9s pour autant, mais une diminution du nombre de contr\u00f4les obligatoires pourrait avoir pour cons\u00e9quence que des filtres d\u00e9fectueux ou trafiqu\u00e9s restent ind\u00e9tect\u00e9s plus longtemps. La VMM plaide explicitement en faveur d'un renforcement des contr\u00f4les techniques dans le cadre de sa lutte contre la fraude aux \u00e9missions.<\/p>\n

Le ministre refuse une \u00e9tude conjointe sur la s\u00e9curit\u00e9<\/h4>\n

S'exprimant devant le Parlement flamand le 15 octobre, la ministre de la Mobilit\u00e9, Annick De Ridder, a r\u00e9affirm\u00e9 qu'elle ne reviendrait pas sur cette r\u00e9forme. \u201c Je n'y changerai pas d'un centim\u00e8tre \u201d, a-t-elle d\u00e9clar\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Elle a \u00e9galement rejet\u00e9 une proposition des autres r\u00e9gions belges visant \u00e0 r\u00e9aliser une \u00e9tude d'impact conjointe, qualifiant une \u00e9valuation commune des r\u00e8gles d'inspection flamandes de \u201c ref\u00e9d\u00e9ralisation rampante \u201d. Elle a fait valoir que toute \u00e9valuation devait rester de la comp\u00e9tence de la Flandre.<\/p>\n

Mme De Ridder a reconnu qu\u2019aucune \u00e9tude d\u2019impact distincte et ind\u00e9pendante sur la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 routi\u00e8re n\u2019avait \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9alis\u00e9e. Le gouvernement pr\u00e9voit plut\u00f4t d\u2019assurer un suivi de la r\u00e9forme a posteriori et de la r\u00e9examiner si des cons\u00e9quences n\u00e9gatives importantes en mati\u00e8re de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 devaient appara\u00eetre. Elle n\u2019a toutefois pas pr\u00e9cis\u00e9 quel seuil d\u00e9clencherait un tel r\u00e9examen lorsqu\u2019elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 interrog\u00e9e \u00e0 ce sujet par le d\u00e9put\u00e9 Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Erens.<\/p>\n

Le ministre a \u00e9galement confirm\u00e9 que la suppression des contr\u00f4les techniques obligatoires pour les v\u00e9hicules d'occasion avait \u00e9t\u00e9 report\u00e9e \u00e0 janvier 2027 en raison du manque de pr\u00e9paration des syst\u00e8mes informatiques f\u00e9d\u00e9raux, et non pour permettre la r\u00e9alisation d'\u00e9tudes suppl\u00e9mentaires en mati\u00e8re de s\u00e9curit\u00e9.<\/p>\n

\u00c9valuer avant ou apr\u00e8s ?<\/h4>\n

Le d\u00e9saccord fondamental porte sur le calendrier. Le gouvernement flamand pr\u00e9conise de simplifier les contr\u00f4les d\u00e8s maintenant et d'en \u00e9valuer les cons\u00e9quences \u00e9ventuelles par la suite. Les d\u00e9tracteurs font valoir que la suppression d'un contr\u00f4le existant sans avoir pr\u00e9alablement v\u00e9rifi\u00e9 son efficacit\u00e9 engendre une incertitude inutile.<\/p>\n

Les contr\u00f4les techniques p\u00e9riodiques et les tests d'\u00e9missions ne dispara\u00eetront pas. La question est de savoir si l'allongement des intervalles, combin\u00e9 \u00e0 la suppression des contr\u00f4les obligatoires lors de la revente, permettra \u00e0 davantage de d\u00e9fauts techniques de passer inaper\u00e7us plus longtemps.<\/p>\n

Newmobility.news a adress\u00e9 au cabinet du ministre De Ridder des questions d\u00e9taill\u00e9es concernant les donn\u00e9es relatives \u00e0 la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 sur lesquelles repose la r\u00e9forme, ainsi que son impact environnemental.<\/p>\n

Le porte-parole a ensuite r\u00e9pondu que ces questions avaient \u201c d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9t\u00e9 abord\u00e9es en d\u00e9tail lors des auditions des commissions parlementaires \u201d, sans apporter de r\u00e9ponses pr\u00e9cises \u00e0 nos questions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
