MOT failure
6 Answers
I have 15 days left on my current MOT. I had my car tested today and it failed.
Is it legal for me to drive, will it invalidate my insurance if I do, does the failure invalidate my current MOT certificate?

Don't do this if it has failed for something dangerous though.
This could now be impossible with the new computorised MOTs though! I don't know enough about them, perhaps someone else could enlighten me?

an MOT is only valid at the time of test!! it is our responsibilty as the driver/owners of the cars to maintain the car to a roadworthy condition for the rest of the year ie reg serviced.the police would prob use this if u were pulled over for a stop check etc, issue a HORTE and u would have to get the defaults rectified and HORTE stamped at a MOT testing station!!
