Department for Transport written question – answered at on 17 September 2018.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what consideration they have given to the use of a segmented windscreen triple disc to indicate the date of expiry of MOT, insurance and road fund tax each separately.
The Government believes that the use of technology is a more effective way of preventing and detecting the unlawful use of untaxed, uninsured and untested vehicles. The police has access to the information held by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency and the insurance industry to allow them to check compliance at the roadside.
Therefore, there are no plans to introduce a windscreen disc to indicate the expiry date of MoT, insurance and vehicle excise duty.
