How long can you drive without MOT?
A MOT goes
on for a year. The date it runs out is imprinted on your ongoing MOT pass
endorsement. You can be fined up to £1,000 for driving a vehicle without a
legitimate MOT. You can get a MOT as long as a month (less a day) prior to it
runs out and keep a similar reestablishment date.
Do
you get 14 days grace for an MOT?
Many people believe
that there is a two-week grace period for lapsed MOTs – which can allow drivers
a leeway period to get their vehicle booked in for their MOT test.
Unfortunately, despite popular belief, the 'MOT grace
period' is actually a myth.
How do police know you have no MOT?
A vehicle that does not have a valid MOT test certificate has its
registration details automatically passed onto the Automatic Number Plate
Recognition (ANPR) of police vehicles. Certain static road-side cameras use ANPR also
If your MOT has expired, you can only drive it directly to a garage for an MOT retest or a
repair. If you're stopped on the way by police, you must
be able to prove that you have an appointment booked at a garage.
