The Transport Secretary announced this morning that anyone whose MOT on a car, van or motorcycle expires after 30 March 2020 will temporarily receive a six month extension. This is due to the difficulty in getting cars to garages during the lockdown. Full details here: gov.uk/gov…rus
The plan is to pass some legislation that will last for up to twelve months.This is all in order to reduce unnecessary trips out of the house.
If your MOT has already expired, or expires before 30 March, but you cannot get an appointment or are self-isolating, then instead you need to declare your vehicle off the road, otherwise known as SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification). Full information on that here: gov.uk/gui…020
If you sd postpone your MOT, it is still vital to keep your car roadworthy and safe if you are driving it - and failing to do so could still result in a fine.
