Raise the maximum price for MOT tests for the first time since 2010

Closed 731 signatures

What the petition asks

The maximum price for an MOT test has not increased since 2010, despite a rise in many other business related costs since then. We believe this has caused many small businesses to go under, sometimes more often than is necessary.
We believe implementing a new maximum limit will help independent garages to stay open, keeping people in jobs.
