The MoT has undergone some of the most significant changes with the arrival of new defect categories for all cars and stricter standards for diesels with particulate filters.

The new rules, state instead of vehicles being given a ‘pass’ or ‘fail’ rating at their MOT, any defects will now be categorised as ‘dangerous’, ‘major’ or ‘minor’ with the first two of these resulting in a test failure.

A ‘dangerous’ rating means a direct and immediate risk to road safety or one that has a serious impact on the environment. The regulatory body, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), warns that the vehicle should not be driven in this condition until it is repaired.

‘Major ‘is described as a defect that may affect the vehicle’s safety, put other road users at risk or have an impact on the environment. The DVSA advises that, in this case, the defect should be repaired immediately.

Both categories are reported as ‘fails’ and any vehicle should not be driven if it is rated as having defects that are either dangerous or major.

The next new category is ‘minor’ which is having no significant effect on the safety of the vehicle or impact on the environment. The DVSA advises that it should be repaired as soon as possible, although a car with a ‘minor’ defect will pass the test.

As well as the three categories of defect, there are two further categories. One is ‘advisory’ which is described as meaning that the defect may become more serious in the future. The DVSA advice is to monitor it and repair it ‘if necessary’The car will pass.

The final category is ‘pass’ and means the vehicle meets the minimum legal requirement, with the DVSA advice to ‘make sure it continues to meet the standard’.
