The camera is set up to record the speed at which a prosecution will be brought about and that's it. The person operating the van and the camera sits back and reads the paper. At the end of a days work the DVLA data base is checked for the details of the registered keeper (RK) & only the registered keeper! The RK of all the vehicles caught exceeding the speed limit are then sent an NIP Any other checks would be an abuse of process because the purpose of the check is to find out who the RK is so that the process of a prosecution can be started, and not to see if there is insurance or MOT. To prosecute someone for no insurance and or no MOT is a completely different process. Points are not issued for no MOT it's a fine only. No insurance is 6 points and a fixed penalty of £200 and the vehicle will also be seized. Unless the matter is dealt with at court in which case the driver will be reported for the offence and the vehicle seized. |

I managed to drive unwittingly for 4 months without an MOT. It was at at routine traffic stop that it came to light and I think the copper could see the genuine shock on my face. I asked if I could book it in immediately, which i did on the roadside with my mobile and took the car straight there. No points or fine, consider myself quite lucky that day.
The car sailed through the mot, being a well loved 850 |

I am in the position of the land rover having an expired mot and if not fixed by end of Oct will have to be sornd, it is still insured.
Even if neither all I need do is register my intention of presenting the car at my mot station, and I am coverd to drive directly there and back home hopefully with a new mot but still no tax. If you get a letter just show proof of booked appointment and your good. Paul. |

I think you need an MOT in order to buy tax, so you will probably be ok.
