When is it Legal to Drive Without an MOT Certificate?

It is only legal to drive without a valid MOT certificate if you are on your way to a pre-booked MOT test or to have the failed defects fixed. If you are stopped by the police, you must be able to prove that you have a booked appointment and confirm it with the test centre or garage.

If you are caught on a public road without a valid MOT certificate, and you can’t meet the above criteria, you can be fined £1,000. There is a further £2,500 fine if your vehicle is found to be unroadworthy. You will also receive 3 points on your driving licence per fault. 

Driving without an MOT certificate also invalidates your car insurance. This brings an unlimited fine, potential disqualification from driving and 6-8 points on your licence.

 

Can I Drive After a Failed MOT?

You can only drive your car after a failed MOT if:

  • The MOT certificate from the previous year is still valid
  • No ‘dangerous’ faults were recorded during the failure

 

You must not drive your car after a failed MOT if it doesn’t meet the above requirements.
