Hi guys, It always seems like Im asking questons but hey if you don't ask how will you ever know right!. I will be receiving a Vosa site assessment sometime in the next 6months,They haven't been since aug 2011. I was off that day.Phew. I would like to know what this will be like, Apart from bloody scary!! My site is currently listed on my vts as 111 risk score which im guessing is fairly good, All posters are up that should be and my office is clean and tidy and there is paperwork correctly filed etc. What else do they check, Do they check any of the cars I have mot'd that day or ask me questions that I might not know the answer to. Just want to be a little bit prepared, I know to ask them for identification. That's about it!!.?

As a worker in a responsible skilled roll within a skilled trade why am I paid so poor??

Can be a bit scary warchild75 but I wouldn't worry too much. I know all scores have re-catagorised so it may change slightly but other than that just keep up to date with recent S/N's and ensure you rehearse you brake test procedure. Any questions are usually dependant on the VE's selection on the day..

The site assessment calculator looks good, not sure what questions they would ask or even If I would get them right. If I don't know the answer but can find the answer via the vts is that ok. Sorry guys just want to make sure they only arrive every 3 years!!
