New Bill In France Could Require Annual MOTs for Older Vehicles - A new bill in France could require certain vehicles to undergo annual MOTs starting in 2025. The change aims to enhance road safety and limit pollution and would change from the current two year period for MOTs. Following recommendations from Germany's TÜV, which reported 15,000 vehicles with "dangerous defects," vehicles over 10 years old may be affected, regardless of mileage. With the average age of French vehicles exceeding 10 years, this change would impact many drivers, with costs ranging from €80 to €120.
