I have a question that I would like to ask, and am not sure if this is the right organization to answer my question, however, I need to at least try.
I own a vehicle – Honda civic, which I drove all the way across Europe to Slovakia to visit my family and stay at home for Christmas. I planned to return to UK for my MOT test which runs out on the 25th of February 2009. However, as far as the road conditions and the weather for such a long journey back is almost impossible or at least to say highly risky, I need to find out whether there would be a chance that I could travel a week or two after the mot expiery and if I could defend my self if stopped by the police on the way from my homeland address in Slovakia to the MOT station, where I would book the test beforehand.
I know there is a possibility to drive a vehicle from and to the MOT station only from the registered address, which in my case is Brighton. However, my situation is very different, and being that I am not in England at the moment, road conditions are terrible for the 1000 miles drive with the summer tyres on, and all that would significantly help is an information, whether the police, in case they stop me could take my situation into consideration and would not endorse a penalty ticket.
Please, let me know if you possibly can answer my question, or if you could advice me any organization or police department that would be competent to deal and answer my question.
Thank you very much, as this is a very serious matter, for your understanding and any help.
