I Spy With My Little Eye…. At the start of each driving/riding test the candidate is asked to sign a declaration stating that the test vehicle is insured. Now the DVSA may also use the facility to check the MOT and Tax status of test vehicles. If you are using a reputable approved driving school or an Approved Motorcycle Training Body then this shouldn’t affect you, but if you are borrowing a vehicle for the test it’s worth making sure. No tax and Mot….. no test!
