lots of RTC'S with no MOT
just trying to find what % of RTC's, Road Traffic Collisions involve vehicles that do not have an MOT. Could not find the information but came across lots of posts here and there where people have been involved in an RTC and either they or the other car do not have an mot.
With ANPR this should not be happening, after all, in Police Interceptors people are stopped for no MOT and surly they are not just doing it for the cameras.
more then 6 years ago my wife forgot to have her car moted and never got stopped.
What should the penalty be? Should penalty be based on the next mot result, if it passes, no action, fails on minor, small fine, fails on major, big fine? Should the mot because its being done on a car stopped by the police for no mot, be done by independent garage or done by VOSA ?
If no MOT (except for driving to and from an mot testing station) make insurance void except for 3rd party, so if you crash your car, insurance does not pay you.
with winter coming, easy to set up police check areas and stop people with faulty lights and see where that leads.
