Expired MOT
Driving without a valid MOT is illegal, except when travelling to a pre-booked test. Offenders risk a £1,000 fine and potentially invalid insurance, and you cannot tax a vehicle without a up-to-date MOT. If your car fails its MOT and is classed as dangerous, driving it could result in a £2,500 fine and 3 penalty points.
Once your vehicle reaches three years of age, it is a legal requirement that it must undergo an MOT test annually. The MOT test will ensure that your vehicle is roadworthy and meets all DVSA standards. Some vehicles, such as taxis and ambulances, need to be re-tested annually after the vehicle is 12 months old.
It is important to bear in mind that an MOT test will not look at the mechanical condition of your vehicle and you should have your car serviced regularly. If you aren't sure when your vehicle is due for an MOT test, you can check the status.
MOT testing takes 45 minutes to 1 hour to complete. The Tyre Group has many test centres, so you can pick a location and time convenient to you.
