In the future, older cars throughout the EU will have to undergo an MOT every year.

Vans and cars should undergo a periodic technical inspection (PTI) every year from the age of ten. This deadline already applies in several member states; in Germany, the two-year inspection interval applies to cars and vans over a certain age. This is one of the measures proposed by the Commission as part of the revision of EU road safety and registration regulations.
