No MOT = No insurance?

Nope.

Can still be properly covered w/o MOT or Tax.

£40 fine. Is that the going rate for no, MOT and Tax?

Probably is in Northern Ireland...here on the mainland however I suspect one can expect something slightly more substantial.

All he had to do was speak to the garage and book a Test. No need for Excise or MOT when being taken there.

May be 'they' realised this, accepted as mitigation and fined lightly.

Not a very enlightening article is it?

When I rode bikes, I was regularly caught with no tax and never got fined once! I used to get six months tax and ride for nine!

Environment Minister.

"Mr Wilson, the DUP's East Antrim MP, owns five motorcycles, and said he thought it was permissible to ride a vehicle to a garage to have it serviced for an MOT test four days later."

not true, in N. Ireland you can't get a mot in a garage, all mot's are done by a government run agency and there is at least a 4 to 6 week waiting list
