Rejected petition Reject the new EU roadworthiness package

More details

Modified cars could fail a new MoT test if controversial European Commission (EC) legislation is passed in what is being labelled 'Armageddon' for the UK's modding industry.

The proposals outline a new 'Roadworthiness Package' that states all cars undergoing an MoT can only pass if they meet the original specifications of the car, preventing 'most modifications of the vehicle'.

We need the UK government to reject this legislation for the safty of the entire modding industry and its future
