Advice
Introduction:
The MOT test is an annual requirement for all vehicles over three years old in the UK, designed to ensure they meet road safety and environmental standards. Despite its routine nature, many drivers harbor misconceptions about the MOT process. Let’s clear the air and debunk some common MOT myths.
Common MOT Myths:
- Myth 1: “If my car fails its MOT, I can’t drive it at all.”
- Truth: You can drive your vehicle to get the faults fixed or to a pre-arranged MOT test appointment.
- Myth 2: “An MOT test can replace a service.”
- Truth: An MOT is a basic inspection and does not cover all aspects of a car’s health like a service does.
Preparing for Your MOT:
To prepare for your MOT, ensure that:
- All lights are functioning correctly.
- The tires have the minimum legal tread depth of 1.6mm.
- The windscreen has no significant damage.
