A temporary exemption from MOT testing will enable vital services to continue, frontline workers to get to work, and people to get essential food and medicine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vehicle owners will be granted a 6-month exemption from MOT testing<\/a>, enabling them to continue to travel to work where this absolutely cannot be done from home, or shop for necessities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All cars, vans and motorcycles which usually would require an MOT test<\/a> will be exempted from needing a test from 30 March 2020. However, vehicles must be kept in a roadworthy condition and please be aware that drivers can be prosecuted if their vehicle is unsafe to drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you cannot get an MOT<\/a> that\u2019s due, because you\u2019re in self-isolation, the Department for Transport is working with insurers and the police to ensure people are not unfairly penalised for things that are out of their control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the current movement restrictions have been lifted we will contact all our customers who’s vehicle was due an MOT<\/a> during this period so they can avoid the inevitable rush that will be caused in 6 months time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
