Petition Action

Introduce annual MoT’s on all cat01 and 02 trailers and caravans.

Petition Details

Introduce legislation for annual inspections on all Cat01 and Cat02 trailers and caravans. This should also include a-frame towed cars.

Additional Information

Type approval was introduced in Oct 2012 for all new Cat01 and 02 trailers. Sadly it was not backed up with any checks.

There has been a catastrophic failure 10 days ago, on an a-frame towed car (still an 02 trailer) and they are subject to no standards or controls whatsoever.

This needs be addressed before there is a fatality.
