I am sure if you are an essential worker they will sort it out. Other than that does it really matter, you wont be using it!

You will if you have to go shopping.

My MOT isn't till August fortunately, but I'll be interested in the advice. Does it mean your car is basically offroad until such time as you can get it MOT'd ? Because you can't tax it either without one.

You'd have to apply for SORN then. I imagine some sort of announcement will be made in due course.

Would be surprised if garages were not open. So many using cars for essential work

Looking at DVSA website it appears lorries will be granted a 3 month extension, assume lorries are first to have an extension due to order of importance, more news on domestic vehicles should be forthcoming?....
Mine is booked in for Friday and I am deemed to be a key worker, will not be working unless it’s either tested or extended...

With hilarious timing the glass in my wing mirror fell off and smashed just as I got in the car early today.

Any idea if Halfords will be open tomorrow? Are they deemed essential?

Maybe now in the future the government will start treating haulage companies with some respect instead of ****ing them over week in week out.

that would be Northern Ireland, they have an exiting problem with lifts at MOT centres so suspended testing a while ago. or at least they already have a process in place to cope with the new situation.

I'll wait for our government to announce what we are going to do
