| If
your vehicle is 3 years or older you are required by law to have an
annual safety check, the ministry of transport test, commonly known
as the MOT Test. The purpose of the MoT test is to ensure the vehicle
meets the minimum safety level required by law.
It
is your responsibility to ensure your vehicle is examined every
12 months. Without a current MoT certificate, you will be unable
to drive your vehicle lawfully or renew your road fund license.
Recent computerisation of the MoT testing system by VOSA means police
and mobile camera units can now check remotely to see if your vehicle
has a current MoT.
