What is the MOT Test?
MOT is the short form, standing for Ministry of Transport, the government department that started this test. The test is standard for testing vehicle safety, exhaust emissions and roadworthiness. This car safety test is highly significant for all vehicles in the UK, and without this certificate for your car you can be punished for breaking the law.
The Ministry of Transport, now known as the Department for Transport, controls the transport network of the state, including vehicle emissions, and the future of transport and transport related security as well as civil matters. The MOT certificate, necessary for your vehicle, is issued by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA).
