An MOT test is an annual inspection of a vehicle’s safety, roadworthiness, and exhaust emissions. It is a legal requirement in the United Kingdom for all vehicles over three years old. The MOT checks a range of items, including the brakes, tires, lights, and exhaust system.
It is important to keep track of when your MOT is due to expire, as driving a vehicle without a valid MOT is illegal. You can check when your MOT is due to expire by looking at the reminder on your vehicle’s dashboard, or by using the online MOT checker provided by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA).
