My SORN'd car has an expired MOT which prevents me from taxing. I need to get it to the MOT garage for an MOT. My nearest MOT place is a couple of junctions down a motorway. With the amount of ANPR cams everywhere, am I at risk of getting into trouble for driving an un taxed vehicle, even though it is to the MOT station and back. Presumably electronic cops automatically send out penalty notices now, which don't take my circumstances into account. It's not like the old days when you just stuck a bit of paper on the windscreen saying "tax applied for" lol :haha:
Can someone advise? Many thanks.

No, the car is in top condition, new winter tyres etc., I was just more worried about the robot cops ANPR, the ones you can't talk to and explain the situation. MOT booked BTW.
