MoT in NI

but their smoke testers are pristine.....

judging by todays message it was important enuff to be sending everyone on the mts details.strange that,inside of a weeks publicity we get messaged about ramps that affect primarily n.i.ministry.any probs/changes/guidance?months if we are lucky,years if we aint (and that's if we ARE lucky)however for a little light entertainment read garage wires article about methadone man essentially topping himself trying to steal a cat.a definte Darwin award candidate if ever I saw one.the comments on the article don't seem overly sympathetic either!sadly itll probably end with the poor bastard yard owner being prosecuted for not ensuring a safe working environment for tealeaves but hey it made me chuckle.live by the sword,die by the sword.

the same article also says dvsa are urging motorists not to ignore advise/minors-GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!summa the ones im issuing are the third time since it came in,guess what?still has the same no plate light/stop/side bulbs/fooked spare etc etc etc as it had on the previous couple.....they made em fails cos otherwise the muppets don't bother.its why we had to have mots in the first place.

Arh but he made half a dozen more before he departed
The mot test is not about road safety, its about the boys in blue making themselves look good on paper. 

They don't actually give a sh1t about a VTS getting a test fee increase, they get their increase pad fees and their wage rises every year come rain or shine.
