The Motor Vehicles (Tests) (Amendment) (Coronavirus) (No. 2) Regulations 2020

The Road Traffic Act 1988 generally prohibits the use of a motor vehicle without a test certificate on a road in Great Britain. In anticipation of disruption to the vehicle testing regime caused by the spread of coronavirus, the Motor Vehicles (Tests) (Amendment) (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020 provided for a six-month exclusion from the test certificate requirement for light vehicles due to be tested between 30th March 2020 and 29th March 2021, with the six-month period for each vehicle beginning on the day after it was due to be tested.
