All too often, traffic commissioners see cases at Public Inquiry where vehicles aren't roadworthy or safe but they've been used to transport goods or passengers on public roads.

Frequently, vehicles have failed their MOT test the first time and operators don’t even know.

DVSA has launched a new service that can help.

You can now check your MOT history online, see when your next test is due and subscribe to a reminder service as a back-up to your wall-planner.
