Road tax and MOT

You must also pay a tax to drive your car on the roads. This is called road tax. Your
vehicle must have a road tax disc which shows you have paid. You can buy this at the
post office. If you do not pay the road tax, your vehicle may be clamped or towed away.

If your vehicle is over three years old, you must take it every year for a Ministry of
Transport (MOT) test. You can do this at an approved garage. The garage will give you
an MOT certificate when your car passes the test. It is an offence not to have a MOT
certificate. If you do not have an MOT certificate, your insurance will not be valid.
