Warning over change to MOT test that could see cars become 'death traps on wheels'

Cars could become “death traps on wheels” if the annual MOT test is changed to every two years, the AA has warned.

At the moment, drivers are required to put their vehicle through an MOT test every year.

But under new plans, this could increase to every two years - and from three years to four years for a new car needing its first ever MOT.
