If you live in the UK and drive a car that's more than three years old, you're responsible for getting a Ministry of Transport (MOT) test every year. The test certifies that your car meets the country's road safety and environmental standards. It's illegal to use a car without an MOT on the roads. If you see one, it's in your best interest to report it, since it presents a safety hazard. Below, we've collected answers to all of your most common questions about how to report a car without a valid MOT.[1]

Tips
- If you have a car without an MOT and you're not planning on driving it for a while, tell DVLA that you're taking the car off the road. You'll get a SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification) so you don't have to pay tax on it while you're not using it.[10]Thanks
