What is an ITV and when is it required?

An ITV is the equivalent to an MOT in England and is required by Law. The inspection assures that all vehicles are road worthy, have functioning lights, indicators, horn and seat belts. Emissions are checked, as are other features that effect public safety such as brakes and hazard lights.

Motorcycles and Mopeds are exempt from inspection until they are 3 years old, then they have to go in every 2 years. Private vehicles are exempt for the first 4 years, and then go in every 2 years until they are 10 years old. After 10 years they must undergo an annual inspection. Caravans that attach to the back of vehicles must be inspected every 2 years once they are 6 years old. Mobile homes are exempt for the first 4 years, and then go in every 2 years until they are 10 years old. After 10 years they must undergo an annual inspection.
