Cash strapped motorists have been warned to ensure they notify the DVLA if their car is off the road and untaxed. An increasing number of drivers are choosing to keep their car off the road amid the cost of living crisis and the high cost of fuel, according to experts from LeaseCar.uk.
But many are not aware of the legal requirements they face if they choose not to run their cars, the experts have warned. All drivers must inform the DVLA if they are planning to keep their car off the road and untaxed they will be issued with a SORN - Statutory Off Road Notification.
Making the notification is straightforward and can be done online via the DVLA’s website. Motorists only need to do a SORN once, and the notification will be automatically overturned if the vehicle is taxed again.
