We are acting against SBC's proposal to force ALL Taxi's to be MOT'd by them!
Reasons:
- It is effectively a cartel, maintaining prices at a high level and restricting competition.
- It will remove £42,000 from our local garages (Based on 600 vehicles, MOT'd twice a year at £35 per MOT)
- It will promote a negative image of our local garages, suggesting that their MOT's are not worthy nor reliable.
- The council do not have the resources to MOT 600 vehicles within the 8 weeks they allow us, and therefore taxi's services will be impacted.
