Introduction

This video provides a theory test revision covering various documents required for driving, including insurance, MOT certificates, and the statutory off-road notification (SORN). It explains the purpose and requirements of each document.

Key Takeaways

• Pass Plus: A scheme for newly qualified drivers to improve driving skills and gain experience on motorways, potentially leading to insurance discounts.
• Insurance Cover Note: A temporary insurance document issued before the certificate arrives, providing roughly a month of temporary cover. It's a valid proof of insurance.
• MOT Certificate: Required for vehicles older than three years. Driving without one is illegal unless to/from a pre-arranged MOT appointment. Valid for one year from the issue date. The registered keeper is responsible for paying vehicle tax.
• Vehicle Excise License (Tax): Required for vehicles. Valid insurance is needed to renew it.
• Statutory Off-Road Notification (SORN): Allows you to declare a vehicle off-road, eliminating the need for road tax until the vehicle is taxed, sold, or scrapped. Driving the vehicle on the road while SORN is in place is illegal. There is a seven day grace period to submit documents to police if stopped without them.
