ive heard that the V.I.C is being scraped by the end of the year.

Does anyone know if its going to be replaced by anything else?
One source has said that mot garages will be conducting future, test any truth in theses rumors??

As we often have to take cars to get tested it will be good to know what the future plans are.

Thank you

"Since the start of the scheme in April 2003 less than 40 so-called 'ringers' have been detected from around 916,000 checks completed over the 11 years to 2013."

So, that means it's not working??? Errrr, that says to me, that ringing is almost none existent because there are adequate checks that prevent it!
Once they abolish the VIC, the ringing will start...

DVLA, making bad decisions AGAIN!
