Mot horror stories

Bryanj:
If anybody remembers the old red dangerous to use failure tickets i did a trail 50 , put 3 failures per line and ran out of space. All the individual failure i considered too dangerous to be on the road but i could still not stop the numpty riding it away!!

mike the bike:
Back in the 80s, my Uncle Ted was an MOT inspector on motorbikes.  One Friday night I got pulled riding my 400four by the law for some reason and was given a HORT1.  A ticket to produce my docs at the police station within 7 days,  otherwise known as a 'seven day wonder'.
Not having an MOT, I asked Ted for a backdated one first thing Monday morning.
'OK' he says, 'pick it up after work '
Not having any cash on me I give him a bag containg several pounds of M8 and M6 bolts, nuts and washers, which Ted was delighted with.
