Caring for the environment is now an important issue for our society and the general public are becoming more and more aware of the environmental impact of vehicles. Scientific research has also shown the impact of carbon emissions on the environment and this has led to legislation being brought in to help the environment.

Because vehicle emissions contribute to higher levels of c02 in the atmosphere, new regulations regarding vehicle emissions have been brought in to control and reduce these levels. The regulations that apply to your vehicle will vary depending on your vehicles size, engine type and the year in which it was manufactured. It’s best to check EU and UK guidelines regarding this before you get your vehicle tested, especially in the case of commercial vehicles such as trucks which are subject to stricter rules.

To ascertain the amount of emissions your vehicle produces, you will need to take it for an emissions test. This test is sometimes included in your MOT test, although emissions tests may also need to be carried out independently. Independent tests are especially useful to business owners ...
... who may need to produce emissions reports on their fleet of vehicles in order to conform with legislation.
