The AA has warned that cars could become 'death traps on wheels' should the annual requirement for an MOT test be extended to every two years instead.
As it stands, drivers are mandated by law to put their vehicle through an MOT test each and every year - to make sure it is roadworthy through safety checks on lights, seatbelts, tyres and brakes.
But new plans from the Conservative Government could see the legal requirement change to every two years instead - with new cars needing an initial MOT after four years of registration as opposed to the current three year time-frame.
