Default MOT

Does anyone know if one of your front fog lights is out, will it fail its MOT?

Front fogs are not tested

All the 'if it's fitted, it must work' stuff is just guff! If you're in any doubt, ring your MOT place first and ask

They aren't tested...but they should be

(how times do you get dazzled by front foglamps that have never had the beam level checked or adjusted ? )

Well, the poor beam alignment (they never are correctly aligned) just adds insult to injury
