MOT Sticker

You may be aware of the MOT sticker initiative to remind drivers that their MOT is due.

The initiative will see MOT tester put stickers inside a car on the windscreen telling them when their next test is due.

MAG asked the question where riders were going to stick their sticker.

The “nice” Transport Minister John Spellar replied and I suspect he just might have a sense of humour.

"Thanks you for your e-mail of 18 March about the new MOT reminder stickers.

You ask whether or not they will be issued to motorcyclists and I am pleased to tell you that they most certainly will.

No one is compelled to use or display these stickers.

They are offered free of charge at the end of the MOT test for all vehicle owners to use as they think most useful. Most car drivers will stick them in their windscreens (as we are encouraging them to do); others (including motorcyclists who, as you say, do not have that option) may wish to stick them on their garage door, in their diaries, or wherever it would best serve them as a reminder."

So the question remains the same, where are going to stick yours?

Answers on a postcard to the usual address and a special prize for the oddest/silliest photograph.
